WEATHER FORECAST
“June Gloom will be upon us all week,” says Jack Martin of Action Roofing. “It looks like each day we’ll see the sun break out after lunch or thereabout. Even the valleys will see some fog, just breaking sooner than along the coast. We could go on and talk about the specifics of a deeper marine layer into mid to late week, but it doesn’t really change things much. There is no excitement in our forecast—just standard June weather.” Email [email protected] to receive daily updates.
