incorrect and we have to make a determination on where this rain will be. you can see the rain very close. about 20 to 25 miles off the coast. again, with the computer model update, this could be right over us tomorrow or it could be further out into the ocean. the other thing to keep in mind tropical storm to our south that's expected to get spread this way. both of those chances of rain will be better promising chance for showers. we're talking yesterday about how important it is to watch the forecast each and every day because it gets updated. now we're talking about our next chance of rain. we'll see this one come in this upcoming week. another shot as we head through the first week of october. this is really looking good and makes us happy in the weather department. it alleviates our drought problems so you don't have to worry about taking the shorter showers. back to you. the fact an aid worker was taken, held and brutally
