It's almost Independence Day but conditions over the last few days have been more spring-like with showers, thunderstorms and below average temperatures.

Independence Day is the day Mother Nature has decided to listen to our pleas for rain. A few clouds filter in for the morning, with only an isolated shot at a shower or two, but we look to stay relatively dry for morning parades and festivities.

As we prepare for more fireworks displays tonight, the question remains: will Mother Nature put on a show of her own in the form of thunder and lightning?
