Rain ending, windy and turning colder overnight. A few sprinkles of rain in the forenoon then four distinct bands of rain showers swept through during the afternoon, each with strong winds and brief heavy rain. Several thunderclaps were heard and some small hail fell from two of them. On two occasions wet snowflakes were seen as temperatures dropped into the high 30s after a high of 51F shortly after noon.
