Another Record Low...

>> Sunday, October 15, 2006

For the second day in a row, the Charlotte airport set a new record low. This morning, the old record low of 34 was smashed when the mercury dipped down to 30 degrees.

I should also note that the earliest in the season Charlotte has ever recorded a low of 32 degrees or colder was on October 9, 2000. So, we were only 5 days later than the earliest freeze ever recorded. Impressive stuff....

Another nice Autumn day today with lows of sun and highs in the mid to upper 60s. It will be chilly again tonight, but I think we should stay just out of the frost range...mainly in the upper 30s.

Clouds increase tomorrow with rain spreading in tomorrow night through Tuesday. There are some incredible helicity values forecasted by the models for our area with the approaching storm system, but fortunately, our atmosphere should remain stable enough that thunderstorms should not be a problem.

My mom is making her way in town today. She has never seen the Blue Ridge Parkway during fall foliage season, so I will take her up there tomorrow and let her enjoy the show. I will hopefully take some more pictures to share with you in this space later in the week.

Have a great Sunday....God bless....
