Commas

Hello,

Would a comma come after the word "today" as in this example:

Today, I have a feeling a storm is imminent.

Thanks for your help!

No comma is needed but if you want to emphasize today , you can put a comma after it. I think it's emphatic enough at the beginning anyway and therefore I would omit the comma. CB

I'm sorry I can't help you there. I have read advice on punctuation in various books over the years but nowadays I mostly go by my ear...
