A restitution hearing for a couple accused of using someone else's credit cards is scheduled for this morning in District Court.

While the forecast shows mostly sunny over the next week or so, I'm a little sketchy after getting rained on during early voting on Saturday, when it was supposed to be mostly sunny. Today's forecast is again mostly sunny with a high temperature of 71 degrees. The low tonight is only supposed to go to 35. Expect the winds today, with gusts of up to 20 mph.
