Skies are cloudy early on this Monday morning, some rain is moving into the western part of the area, temperatures range from the mid 60s on the Clifton area to the upper 50s inland, winds are mainly calm.

Just an abbreviated weather today since I am still under the weather, I thank Joan for yesterday’s post.

Have a healthy day!

(Note added by Joanie…Al did this from his hospital room, despite having a terrible night.) We were hoping he’d come home today, but not happening 🙁

For the many of you who rely on Allan’s Weather Watch, this is his wife Joanie letting you know that there will either be a delay or no report today. My husband was admitted to the  hospital last night after many hours in the ER, for observation & possible surgery.  He was comfortable when I left him last night, after many hours of abdominal pain.

I can tell you it is 62 degrees in Clifton with the sun shining at present. I will keep you updated on Al’s health; he will keep you updated on the weather as soon as he can.

In Allan’s  words, “have a good day”!
