The weather forecast for the 2016 U.S. Open looks a little wet at first, but it should be gorgeous by the weekend.

Some rain rolled into Oakmont Country Club on Wednesday, softening up a golf course that will likely offer somewhat receptive fairways and greens during the first two days of the championship.
