Cool October weather...

>> Friday, October 21, 2011



A chilly October airmass has taken up residence across much of the eastern US, and it will stick around here through the weekend. Temps dropped into the upper 20s in some mountain locations this morning, while most spots in the Piedmont ranged from the mid 30s to the mid 40s.

Highs today through the weekend will be in the 60s across the Piedmont, and morning lows in many spots will drop into the mid and upper 30s. That will probably be good enough for some patchy frost both weekend mornings.

Highs will return to the 70s Monday through Wednesday or so, and then a sharp cold front will again approach late Thursday. Look for some rain chances with that front, and then another chilly airmass as we head through the weekend leading up to Halloween.

Breezy, cool conditions...

Back in the saddle this morning.....many thanks to Jim Lytle filling in for me while I was away at the National Weather Association conference.

A chilly, dry airmass continues to settle into the region today. It will be breezy with Piedmont winds sustained in the 15-30mph range today with higher gusts. It will be even windier in the mountains, and some snow flakes will fly in some areas.

Another great October weekend is ahead with sunshine and 60s for highs. It will be chilly at night with morning lows in the upper 30s and lower 40s.

Our next rain chance will likely not arrive until Thursday of next week. There are some model differences toward the end of next week...see the video for more.
