OMG the sky is turning blue! The rainiest March ever will end on a dry note. 10.69 inches of rain have fallen this month. That surpasses 1983 as the wettest March by 0.15 inches. The driest March was only four years ago. Back in Aught-six only 0.8 inches of precipitation fell in the rain gauge near Belvedere Castle. Using our extraordinary extrapolatory powers, that means we can expect over 20 inches of rain in March 2014!

Blue skies should completely win out over the clouds by late this afternoon. Today's high temperature should be a smidgen over the normal of 55 degrees.

High pressure covers the eastern half of the country. That means the city is in for several days of clear skies. Look at this, people: Tomorrow - sunny and 70 degrees; Friday - sunny, in the lower 70s; Saturday - sunny and mid 70s; Sunday - get your bonnets out as it will be mostly sunny and... 70 degrees. Let's go out on a limb and say that Monday and Tuesday are also likely to be sunny, albeit slightly cooler.
