Go ahead, pull the covers up over your head.
The weather outside today will match our mood as we hunker down for still another week of staying home amidst life in the coronavirus pandemic.
It's raining already and it will continue to do so - heavy at times - for most of the morning.
And that's not the worst part.
The rain will be accompanied by high winds, gusting to 50 mph, along with the possibility of thunderstorms. The National Weather Service has issued a high-wind warning for the entire region until 7 p.m. Monday. The agency warns the gusts could bring down trees and power lines.
They indicate travel will be difficult, especially for big rigs and high-profile vehicles.
The strongest winds are expected to hit later this morning and into early afternoon, accompanied by thunderstorms.
The Weather Service suggests people avoid being outside - as if we needed another reason - and be especially careful in forested areas such as nature trails.
Brace yourself for the possibility of downed trees and power outages. Might be a good idea to power your devices now.
