The 60% chance of showers forecast

It shouldn't be a surprise that once again the forecast has changed for the weekend, Forecasting weather in the spring in the mountains can be very tricky. Hence it will raining more than half the time. Throw in the sunshine icon, a couple lightning bolts, and a couple little snowflakes there too just in case, and you have all the bases covered. The high pressure is coming one day soon too maybe throw it in the long range forecast for July 1st.
