Warm with only isolated storms...

>> Friday, August 14, 2009



Above is today's edition of the Carolina Weather Video. Lots of tropical talk in there as well as the usual discussion of our weather.

Today's forecast is very similar to yesterday's in the Carolinas....partly sunny with mid to upper 80s for highs. Again today and tomorrow, the best opportunity of showers and storms will be in the eastern part of the state. For the Triad and Charlotte zones, only isolated storms.

A little better chance of some showers and storms could be with us Sunday with highs in the upper 80s.

Monday and Tuesday look mainly dry with highs not far from 90, then a better chance of some showers and storms arrives Wednesday.

Tropics: The remnant low of TD 2 is trying to refire some convection today, and it stands at least a small chance of trying to re-develop. Whatever can redevelop out of that will likely affect the Southeast coast around Wednesday or Thursday next week.

A powerful tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic is on the verge of becoming a classified tropical system. I still think this has a good shot of becoming a significant tropical system, and an eventual US landfall is possible...8-11 days from now.

Note on the left-hand column you can see the latest satellite image and computer model plots for both systems.
