How can it be sunny and overcast at the same time? That's today's weather conundrum. A layer of cirrus clouds will cover the sky for much of the day. At times the clouds will be thick enough to color the sky a milky white, yet thin enough that you'll still see your shadow. Because all New Yorkers are angels the thin, icy clouds may produce a halo around the sun.

Kind of a half-assed weather day today. There's enough moisture and an upper-level disturbance to produce a thick layer of clouds, but not enough of a disturbance to wring some of that moisture out of the atmosphere. So, we're looking at overcast skies that will keep the temperature down in the mid 70s this afternoon. There may be a sprinkle or two today, but any real chance of rain will have to wait until tomorrow.
