Chillier air has arrived
>> Friday, October 29, 2010
Below is today's edition of the Carolina Weather Video. In the post below this one is my winter forecast and video.
A much cooler airmass has arrived across our region. Despite a sunny sky, highs today will warm into the low to at most mid 60s.
Many locations will have their coldest night thus far this season tonight. Under a clear sky, temps will drop off into the 30s by Saturday morning, and in many Piedmont locations, temps will likely be cold enough for frost. Some of the traditionally colder spots might even dip into the lower 30s.
A delightful October weekend is on tap. Look for sunshine with 60s for highs tomorrow and lower 70s for Halloween. No problems either evening for the trick-or-treaters.
Next week....
Next week will be a cool week overall. At some point, likely Tuesday through Thursday, our next system will roll in. Lots of uncertainty with the details of that one, but I will mention some shower chances those days, and we might wind up with a few days with highs in the 50s.
Tropics...
Tropical Storm Shary will scrape near Bermuda today as a minumal tropical storm....then head out to sea.
There is a sizable tropical wave nearing the eastern Caribbean. We will watch that one for development.

Hey Matt,
Looks like the models are beginning to show a colder November with blocking to our North keeping troughs in place longer and deeper.Also, towards the middle of the long rage GFS, I noticed a coastal low pressure. Could that be what may become Tomas being turned north by a trough?

Hi Matt I'm not sure if you know this answer to these question.Has there ever been a year where we had 27 storm either TS or hurricane in a season.And if that is the case how did the national hurricane center named the storm .Did start from A again.The reason I'm asking this.This year is very busy and we might be very close to getting 27 storm
Brandon...yeah, November has had a fairly blocky look at times as well as a fairly active storm track. And obviously late in the season any tropical system is fair game to get pulled north.
After all of the storm names are used for a season, you go the Greek alphabet. That happened in 2005 if memory serves.
Hey matt, I was looking at a model earlier that had a coastal low around next week off the Carolina coast spreading precip all the way to the mountains with the 540 line all the way to the coast. Is this an indicator of possible snow in November?
