Hard to believe yesterday we were scrambling to leave work to bask in the Indian summer warmth. Today has been cloudy and breezy, and thunderstorms are expected to hit the area around quitting time.

For those of you on the graveyard shift, the rain is forecast to last through the night; be sure to use extra caution driving to your destination.

For those punching out at 5 p.m., the rain (if it happens) shouldn’t hinder your commute too much; no vehicle accidents were reported to the Augusta Police Department or to the Kennebec County Sheriff’s Office.
