After a brilliant sunrise this morning we had a cloudy day with a very light shower or two. Showers overnight and tomorrow with sun on Wednesday. TS Ernesto has a mind of its own (like all tropical systems) was headed to the GOM, then west Florida, now models have east coast of Florida and up the east coast. Should have no effect on us due to a high pressure system that will block it.
