WEATHER
Some like it hot! If that’s you, today is YOUR day #GoodFriend! It’s going to be warm, with a high climbing over 90° and mostly sunny skies until the afternoon and a cold front starts to move in. Of course, that means a few storms. Then we’ll have a cooler and very comfortable night with a low near 62°. 🙂
COLEMAN BRIDGE REPORT
It looks like another #GoodDay at The Coleman today with no scheduled openings to worry about. #GoodThing 🙂
