6:04 AM: Good morning. It’s Thursday, April 14th; spring break continues for many local schools.

WEATHER

“Slight chance” of rain or snow showers in the forecast this morning, otherwise partly sunny – and a high “near 50,” though that’s what the National Weather Service also predicted for Wednesday, and the top temp turned out to be 44, 15 degrees below the normal high for that date.

ROAD WORK

Thanks to Gill for the tip. Work on 35th SW just south of SW Findlay might be continuing today, so be prepared for possible lane reductions there.
