Thunderstorms May Be Back

According to The Weather Channel app, it is 34° outside right now. Autumn is obviously here.

As for the next couple of days, it looks like we may be getting some thunderstorm activity, at least that's what the National Weather Service says. But they've been notoriously wrong many times. We received no precipitation during the time I was in Arizona last week.

Last year, I noticed that The Weather Channel's forecasts were more accurate than those of the National Weather Service.

We'll see.

Anyway, here's what the National Weather Service forecasts for Jamestown, New Mexico:

Today
