Steady Red - Rain Ahead
[Chris Harmon, 12/05/2015]
Steady blue, clear view; Flashing blue, clouds due; Steady red, rain ahead; Flashing red, snow instead. Flashing blue and red, the curse of the Bambino is dead! (2007 Red Sox World Series win). The weather beacon will also flash red during baseball season if the Sox game is canceled.
