The sprinkles yesterday developed into an actual thunderstorm last night around 10pm, followed by a few showers off and on. As of 8am this morning, we got 0.1" / 2.5mm since yesterday.

Once again, there isn't much change in the various forecasts and computer models. Looks like a continuing chance of occasional light rains today: still about 50% for the day? The IR loop ( http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/west/epac/flash-avn.html ) shows the heavy moisture plume might be tapering off somewhat, later in the day. So hopefully there will be less chance of rain interfering with your Valentine's dinner plans.

The forecast continues somewhat the same for tomorrow (Sunday), and then tapering off and drying out by Monday night.

As far as this morning goes, the latest TRMM data (0900Z) shows a large cluster of heavy rains and thunderstorms just off shore from us. Since this data is a few hours old, I don't know what happened to these rains. They might have hit our force field: http://trmm.gsfc.nasa.gov/trmm_rain/americas/americas_3hrly_zoom.gif
