I have some exterior door trim to paint. I had hoped for a nice day today to put the final coat of paint on this, but instead, it’s 60 degrees and drizzling. The door is under a porch roof, so it won’t get direct exposure to the rain, but it is quite damp, 80% humidity. Should I wait? For what it’s worth, I’m using Sherwin Williams Exterior Latex SuperPaint.

The secret of Zen in two words is, "Not always so"!
The best things in life are nearest: Breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of right just before you. Then do not grasp at the stars, but do life's plain, common work as it comes, certain that daily duties and daily bread are the sweetest things in life.
—Robert Louis Stevenson

That's what I thought, thanks. Too bad it's also to damp for boating!
