ZZzzzzz......

Before I delve into the weather, let me just share what a putrid football weekend that was for me. My Bulldogs went down to Baton Rouge and came out of there with a sound defeat. 5 turnovers. Odd thing is, MSU outdid LSU in almost every major statistical category.....except turnovers. You are simply not going to win, really at any level of football, with 5 turnovers.

Then there is the Panthers. Ugh. My wife is a Bucs fan, and we really enjoy poking fun at each other on Panthers-Bucs gameday. Yesterday didn't turn out to well.....



On to the weather. As the title of this post indicates, the weather is such that it sort of puts you to sleep. Simply put, there is just nothing in the way of major storm systems headed our way. Highs each afternoon will continue to be well above September averages all week long...in fact, most days will feature highs in the lower 90s.

The drought conditions continue to worsen across the region. And once again, I have no formal rain chance in the entire seven day outlook.

Long term....

There continue to be come signs of a pattern chance in the 7-10 day range that might lead to some cooler temps....but nothing to really hang your hat on yet.

Tropics...

Igor lashed Bermuda for much of the weekend, but the island will see improvement today as Igor continues to pull away.

Julia continues to fall apart as it heads east way out in the Atlantic.

Most of the modeling is indicating some sort of tropical development will try to occur in the western Caribbean Sea late this week. If that does occur, that would likely be something to watch for US landfall implications down the road.
