Good morning, Whitewater.
Saturday in town will be cloudy, with a high of fifty-one, and showers this evening. Sunrise is 7:16 and sunset 4:21, for 9h 04m 26s of daytime. The moon is a waxing crescent, with 1.4% of its visible disk illuminated.
In Montana a few days ago, the temperatures dropped, and the tumbleweeds arrived:
Some good Ol' Apocalypse Weather.
Insane. The temp dropped 19 F in as many minutes and there had to be thousands of Tumbleweeds. (For licensing or usage, contact licensing@viralhog.com)

Frank Sinatra was born a century ago:
Francis Albert “Frank” Sinatra (/s??n??tr?/; December 12, 1915 – May 14, 1998) was an American jazz and traditional pop singer, songwriter, actor, producer and director, who was one of the most popular and influential musical artists of the 20th century. He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold more than 150 million records worldwide.[2] Born in Hoboken, New Jersey to Italian immigrants, he began his musical career in the swing era with Harry James and Tommy Dorsey. He found success as a solo artist after being signed by Columbia Records in 1943, becoming the idol of the “bobby soxers“.
He released his first album, The Voice of Frank Sinatra, in 1946. Sinatra’s professional career had stalled by the early 1950s, and he turned to Las Vegas, where he became one of its best known performers as part of the Rat Pack. His career was reborn in 1953 with the success ofFrom Here to Eternity and his subsequent Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He signed with Capitol Records and released several critically lauded albums, including In the Wee Small Hours (1955), Songs for Swingin’ Lovers! (1956), Come Fly with Me (1958), Only the Lonely (1958) and Nice ‘n’ Easy (1960)….
