Well we got off lucky with Ophelia. We received 66 mm of rain but no wind. Today was a cloudy day with a high of 20.8*C and a morning low of 15.6*C. late this afternoon a low pressure system moved by off the coast but any rain associated with it stayed off shore. The barometer was rising today and at 9 pm it was at 101.4 kPa up from an overnight low of 100.3 kPa. The temperature at 9:30 pm was 17.6*C.
there are two new TS to deal with Rita, Which looks like is headed for the GOM, and Philippe which will probably affect Bermuda and depending upon its tract could have an effect on our weather. But it is still too early to tell. Both are expected to develop into hurricanes, possibly major.
