(No count conducted today)



Weather:
Counter William Gallagher arrived at the site early this morning and it was
socked in with dense fog and already raining at the higher elevations. 
Checking the weather cam at 11:15 a.m., conditions have certainly NOT
improved; cannot see the lanes of I-64 a short distance from camera's
position due to thick fog.  Considering deteriating conditions with
remnants of Jeanne moving into the region, we'll probably be shut down
through tomorrow (Tuesday) at the earliest.  Drats!!!

This is really getting quite old.....
