basin early september, and we do have named storm out there, tropical storm franklin, still churning away as a tropical storm over the ooh uketon peninsula. essentially moving due west, will probably make second landfall as tropical storm in to eastern mexico. will eventually deteriorate much more so once it hits the mexican mountains. we bring it back stateside. that storm certainly has no direct impact, but absolutely worth a mention. meanwhile back here at home mid 70s where we currently stand. little cooler in the mountains , that's been the case all morning, all afternoon long, thus far. and we will continue to see that take place throughout the rest of the day. up at pleasant valley middle and high school, yes, starting to brighten up just a little bit. still shadow being cast what's left of cloud deck here on the broad heads villain everywhere else. looking at the seven day, won't see ton of movement on the thermometer. very minimal ups and downs here, but the early mornings will feel pretty comfortable the next few mornings, if you're one of those folks, fan of leaving the windows crack open at night, want to turn the ac up, go for it, the next
