Warm & muggy Thursday sees a few afternoon downpours; staying unsettled heading into weekend

Yahoo2 days ago

Thursday morning sees temps in the 60s for the lowlands and 50s for the high terrain in the eastern mountains. Cloud cover will build in this morning combined with some haze from the Canadian wildfires. While an isolated sprinkle can't be ruled out this morning, our best chances for rain will hold off until this afternoon and evening.
No severe weather is expected today, but the humidity combined with daytime highs near 80, will create some slow moving downpours.
Thursday evening will bring in some hit or miss showers and general thunderstorms early on. After sunset, any showers and storms will lose energy quickly, allowing them to dissipate overnight. Expect a muggy and warm overnight with some patchy fog along areas that saw some showers earlier in the day. Overnight lows will be in the low 60s.
Friday starts with some passing showers in the morning, but we'll have some dry time mixed in. As a cold front gets closer, combined with the humidity and daytime highs reaching near 80 again, scattered showers and storms will be a good bet during the afternoon and evening. One or two strong to severe storms can't be ruled out with small hail and damaging winds. Our severe threat will wane overnight as our cold front passes.
Saturday sees our cold front pass through during the morning. This means scattered showers and rumbles of thunder will be a good bet during the morning followed by some breaks at times. If we get enough breaks here or there, scattered rain and even a few thunderstorms will linger into the afternoon and evening. Similar to Friday, one or two strong to severe storms are on the table with small hail and damaging winds, but the threat is a low one. Highs will be a little cooler in the middle 70s.
Our Interactive Radar
Sunday brings a low pressure system during the morning. This means we can expect another round of scattered showers for those heading out to church. As this low pressure system passes through, more chances for rain and storms will linger into the afternoon. Expect daytime highs to stay in the middle 70s.
Monday sees a warm front lift off to the northeast as we wait for our next cold front to arrive on Tuesday. Even so, isolated to scattered showers will be around on Monday as daytime highs climb into the upper 70s.
Tuesday brings in a cold front, igniting more chance for scattered showers and storms. Keep the rain jackets on standby once again with daytime highs struggling to get into the middle 70s.
#WeatherTogether
In your extended forecast, can't rule out an isolated sprinkle early on Wednesday morning but the second half is trending to be a dry one. Thursday sees high pressure build in, allowing us to dry out. This looks to be short lived however as another system arrives by next Saturday with more chances for showers and storms.

Stanley Cup Final for old men: Brad Marchand and Corey Perry shine on hockey's biggest stage

Associated Press EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) — Brad Marchand and Corey Perry are by far the oldest players in the Stanley Cup Final. Marchand just turned 37 last month, and Perry is 40. Naturally, they combined for a third of the goals in Game 2 on Friday night, showing this is indeed a Cup final for old men, not for the earth but certainly in hockey. Marchand scored his second of the game to win it in double overtime for the Florida Panthers after Perry got the latest tying goal in the history of the final in the waning moments of regulation to give the Edmonton Oilers hope. "You saying he's old, or what?" teammate Seth Jones said of Marchand. 'I'm going to tell him you said that. He's a dog. He's a gamer. He's a competitor. He brings so much energy to our team on and off the ice.' Where does that energy come from to play 22 important minutes? Anton Lundell hopes it comes from him and fellow linemate Eetu Luostarinen, the pups keeping an older dog like Marchand feeling young. 'He likes to spend time and be around us,' said Lundell, who set up each of Marchand's breakaway goals. "He's in great shape, and it seems like nothing is stopping him.' Marchand is not slowing down in his 16th NHL season and 13th playoff run, the first away from the Boston Bruins. He is in the final for a fourth time, this one 14 years removed from his first when he and Boston also faced a Canadian team, the Vancouver Canucks, and won the Cup to keep the country's title drought going. His two-goal game came on the anniversary of scoring short-handed on Roberto Luongo in the 2011 final. Luongo now works for the Panthers in their front office and posted on social media after the game, 'Favorite player of all time.' "Lu is awesome," said Marchand, whose 10 goals in the final are the most among active players, one more than Perry. "Happy to be on his team.' Perry even longer ago helped beat a Canadian team in the final when he and Anaheim defeated Ottawa in 2007. He's playing for the Cup for a sixth time in his career and for the fourth time over the past five years and is still producing at important moments. His tying goal with 17.8 seconds on the clock in the third period was just the latest example. 'Determination, finding a way to find the puck and then obviously putting it in the net. He's got a skill for that,' Edmonton coach Kris Knoblauch said. 'Knowing in the playoffs it's hard to score and you need guys around the net and finding ways, he's as good as anybody finding ways to score.' Plenty of folks might be surprised to see Marchand and Perry doing this at their advanced ages. Paul Maurice, who has coached more games than anyone in NHL history except for Scotty Bowman, is not one of them. Maurice credits rule changes coming out of the 2004-05 lockout and sports science around the league for paving the way for players to contributed later into their 30s and even 40s. 'I think we're coming into an age of that,' Maurice said. "A tremendous amount of care for the players, whether that's the meals that they eat, how we travel — there's a lot of money that goes into allowing these players to play. The old guys and the young guys benefit from the rule change, and they're better fit, conditioned athletes over their entire lives.' Marchand has his own routine, one that goes beyond the Dairy Queen Blizzard jokes that keep swirling around him this playoffs. He rode a stationary bike before overtime, something he likes to do after most periods. 'You're trying to keep your legs going in overtime," Marchand said. 'Keep them feeling good.' The Panthers are feeling good after acquiring Marchand at the deadline from Boston and unleashing him for goals in Game 2 that tied the series. Winger Matthew Tkachuk thinks Marchand scored two of their biggest goals during this run, aging like a fine wine. 'Hopefully he can keep it going,' Tkachuk said. Unreal player, unreal competitor. ... 'He could play till he's 47 the way he's going.' ___ AP NHL playoffs: and recommended

Canada's Triumph is celebrated on a 14-song tribute album

Canada's Triumph is celebrated on a 14-song tribute album originally appeared on Goldmine. Round Hill Records has released the double vinyl album Magic Power: All-Star Tribute to Triumph, with 14 songs from 14 rock vocalists, paying tribute to the Canadian band, produced by Mike Clink and mixed by John Spiker. VARIOUS ARTISTS Magic Power: All-Star Tribute to Triumph Round Hill Records (2-LP, CD, digital) Canada's Triumph began as a trio in 1975 with Rik Emmett on guitar and vocals, Mike Levine on bass and Gil Moore on drums and vocals. After four mid-to-late '70s singles in Canada, the group broke through in the U.S. with their fifth single, 1979's Top 40 debut 'Hold On.' Jeff Keith of Telsa delivers the encouraging lyrics and emotional bridge. Triumph's next single 'Lay It on the Line,' also from their third album 1979's Play the Game, charted in the Top 100 but failed to crack the Top 40. In his 2023 Goldmine interview Emmett shared, ''Hold On' received AM radio airplay, edited to make it shorter, and 'Lay It on the Line' received FM airplay, as AM wouldn't play something that heavy in those days. As a result of that, we became an FM AOR (Album Oriented Rock) band with RCA needing to promote our Just a Game album with FM AOR stations for it to become successful, and it worked, becoming our first gold album in the U.S.' Dee Snider of Twisted Sister brings his powerful voice to 'Lay It on the Line' joined by Kyle Glass and John Spiker on background vocals, electrifying guitar from Paul Gilbert, and thunderous drums from Victor Indrizzo. The title tune for this tribute album is 'Magic Power.' Emmett stated, ''Magic Power' has that pure Pete Townshend Who stuff. You can't copyright chord progressions, but in the classic rock canon, that chord progression pretty much belongs to Pete. Who's Next was a very formative album for me as a teenager in the 1970s, so I was tapping into that when coming up with 'Magic Power.'' Joey Belladonna of Tesla hits the high vocal notes, surrounded by strong guitar, bass, and drums from Justin Derrico, Todd Kerns, and Kenny Aronoff, respectively. 1981's 'Magic Power' was the first of three U.S. Top 100 singles for Triumph in the '80s, followed by 1985's 'Follow Your Heart,' performed here by Jack Blades of Night Ranger, along with a fluid lead guitar from Reb Beach of Whitesnake, Winger, and Black Swan. Triumph's highest charting U.S. hit was 'Somebody's Out There,' which reached No. 27 in 1986, the year that Rick Sanders joined Triumph on keyboards. The song is performed by keyboardist and vocalist Lawrence Gowan, who had a Canadian radio hit the following year with 'Moonlight Desires,' joined by Yes' Jon Anderson on harmony vocals. Gowan is currently on tour with Styx, who he joined in 1999. On this new recording, Dave Amato's guitar helps to propel the track. Jason Scheff, who was a key member of the band Chicago from 1985 through 2016, heard on the Top 10 hits 'Will You Still Love Me?,' 'I Don't Want to Live Without Your Love,' 'Look Away,' 'You're Not Alone,' and one he co-wrote, 'What Kind of Man Would I Be?,' sings 'Just One Night.' Scheff's recognizable voice shines, 'hold on to love just one night.' Phil X, who joined Triumph in 1992, is heard on guitar. Scheff is currently on the Lead Singers of Classic Rock tour with Tommy DeCarlo, the most recent lead singer for the band Boston, along with members of Dennis DeYoung's band. Scheff told Goldmine that there will be more dates to be added to the tour. 'Never Surrender' is performed by Deen Castronovo, the drummer for Bad English and now Journey. Castronovo enthusiastically told Goldmine, 'Never surrender was one of the coolest songs that Triumph recorded! It was totally different from the music they had previously written. Had it not been for Triumph's Gil Moore singing and drumming, there would be no singing and drumming Deen Castronovo! Also, Rik's vocals on that song are astronomically high. I was given a shot after Jason Scheff recommended me for the project. It was not an easy feat by any stretch, but I did my best and hope that the listeners will like how it came out!' Castronovo's high vocal notes and rasp recall Rod Stewart's most powerful moments, focusing on his voice while Brooks Wackerman handles drum duties on this funky number. 'Had it not been for Triumph's Gil Moore singing and drumming, there would be no singing and drumming Deen Castronovo!' – Deen Castronovo of Journey Emmett stated, ''Fight the Good Fight' started out as a folk song. I sat with an acoustic guitar to write the tune.' Heart's Nancy Wilson, who was a Canadian resident in the early days of Heart and Triumph, engagingly sings, 'I keep my magic in my heart,' joined by a haunting guitar from Mason Stoors and steady drums from Tony Braunegel. Wilson provides her own harmony vocals, recalling the warmth of Heart's 1976 debut album Dreamboat Annie. Another stellar female vocalist heard on this tribute album is Maiah Wynne performing 'Blinding Light Show' with her band Envy of None, who have the Canadian classic rock nucleus of Rush's Alex Lifeson on guitar and Coney Hatch's Andy Curran on bass, and have just released their sophomore album Stygian Waves. In the Goldmine Spring 2025 issue, Lifeson shared, 'Maiah was 19 when we started out with her, and she's what, 27 now? She's brilliant, bordering on genius at times. She's really evolved and matured a lot as a singer, lyricist, and songwriter. She's just amazing.'
