Misc. Comments:

Models have shifted to the front being a bit more wet than they expected yesterday. I don't think Saturday will be a wash out, there will most likely be a band of showers move through and then we'll dry up. Ike is absolutely blowing up in the tropics right now, he's up to Cat 3 with winds of 115mph as of 8PM. I'll have a more detailed post coming tomorrow. Until then have a good one.
