The west side finally got a good rain. It looks like two waves for most, one at 3 a.m. and one that has been passing through in the 6 a.m. hour. Sometimes the rain-cooled air creates a boundary that can create more showers. That is what happened yesterday when Camp Bay and St. Helene inContinue reading “July 12, 2023”
