As we all probably know, bad weather reduces voter turnout. Although the actual impact on the election varies depending on WHAT PART of a state gets hit by bad weather, the general rule is that bad weather increases the proportion of voters who vote Republican.
Today the weather seems pretty clear all across the country. There's just a few small pockets of bad weather, but they don't seem likely to effect any competitive races except for possibly the Florida governorship.
This could be a good sign for Democrats, or it could just be a sign that their troubles won't be any worse than they already are.
