WEATHER BLOG: Sunday

It's cooler and drier behind the front but this airmass simply will not get as far south as they had been this summer. So, to end the weekend and to begin NFL Sundays, it will be a pleasant day with seasonable temperatures and a good amount of sunshine in the afternoon as the clouds break as the front stalls out in the Carolinas. This is quite a change to the weather pattern and is allowing the area to warm up recently and this warming pattern will begin again after the cool down behind this front.

The new workweek will start with a very similar weather pattern as the front slowly begins to lift north and high pressure is over northern New England. We will have to watch for what we call "funky" business or a "home brew" early this new workweek as the big high to the north combining with a bit of spin in the atmosphere along the old front may cause an ocean storm to develop. We will have to watch this feature closely and see what kind of impacts this system will have on the area Monday through Wednesday. There is much debate about how far west this feature can get. In any case, we have plenty of clouds in this forecast Monday and Tuesday. Best case scenario this system stays further to the east and we are warmer than forecast, worst case scenario is it even cloudier, damp and cooler.

Then we are seasonably warm and humid on Wednesday and Thursday out ahead of a very strong cold front that will pass through the region Thursday night that will usher in a much cooler and drier airmass. This looks like the coolest airmass of the young "cool" season. We may be too fast with this front and Thursday could end up dry as the strong front pushes into a big ridge of high pressure. Something we will have to watch for as we get closer to the event.
