    Why it is doing this

    What the day does comes down to three things: where the air came from, which way the pressure is going, and how much of the sun gets through.

    The sky is nearly clear, so the sun does its full work by day and the ground radiates that heat straight back out after dark.

    The dew point is 59 — noticeable but not oppressive, and low enough that the nights can cool off properly.

    The barometer is down 1.7 millibars in six hours. Falling pressure means air is being lifted somewhere close by, and lifted air is what builds cloud and, eventually, rain.
