We were rooting for the Forty Niners in this household. I don’t think I’ve actually watched an entire Super Bowl end to end in years, much less through five entire quarters only to see it won in the last 2 seconds by the Chiefs.
We’ll hear what the betting take was on the game at some point today or Tuesday. The Forty Niners were 2 point favorites and kind of the home team for this half of Nevada, anyway. That could amount to a big win for the casinos.
The next chance for precipitation arrives overnight on Wednesday and continues through early next week. There’s not a bunch of moisture associated with the fronts, but every little bit helps.
Today’s forecast calls for partly sunny skies with a high temperature around 48 degrees and a light southeasterly breeze this afternoon at 5 mph.
