I got up in the late afternoon after dozing off and on most of the day. I took a much-needed shower then started to prepare my dinner where I baked two small salmon fillets in foil with lots of lemon and dill, cheddar broccoli rice and roni and cut green beans. It really was yummy, I was very pleased on how the salmon came out. I worked on some email in the evening and checked out all the Fathers Day messages and pictures posted on Facebook. I also had some prune juice and hot and spicy low sodium V8 before dinner and some cashews and Triscuits well after dinner. I watched some of the Red Sox/Astros game on the ESPN game of the week (won by Boston 6-5) and also a live wrestling show on the internet on my computer. I continued to work a bit more on the newly “hatched” Weatherquack weather website which should be fun in the coming months.  I hope some of you out there will join in the fun soon on Weatherquack http://www.weatherquack.com – it is completely free and easy to use once you complete your registration and a short ramping up period.   I also drank a good part of my ginormous water bottle throughout the evening and early morning hours.

On Channel 4 radar at 0620, there are showers on a rough NE/SW line moving S and E towards our area out to the west over parts of WV, KY, PA and NY. They will get stronger as the day progresses and get fueled by the heat and humidity of the daylight hours.

As of 0632 EDT, the data from my balcony (VP2 and Taylor), the Lakewood Country Club WXBug station, and the USG VP2 station across the street is as follows:
