Chatham Forecast: Sunny, With A Chance Of Flip-Flops
After what seems like a never ending winter, we will get a taste of summer. Check out the details. And don't forget your sunscreen.
Consider it an appetizer.
After what has seemed like unending days of cold weather and precipitation, there’s a taste of summer coming this weekend. We just have to get through the rain on Friday.
The National Weather Service is calling for temperatures in the mid- to upper 70s on Saturday, with abundant sunshine -- the kind of day that will have people breaking out the shorts and flip-flops and heading to the beach.
