Above is the latest edition of the Carolina Weather Video.
Breezy again today...
>> Thursday, February 12, 2009
A little short on time today...please see the video....I discuss everything in there.
In short, very breezy today, and the wildfire danger is high. Please avoid outdoor burning. Highs in the 60s today and tomorrow.
Still looks like some light rain Saturday morning along with much chillier weather over the weekend.
A feature that seems to be gathering steam in the modeling is a system that swings through Sunday night. That one might wind up producing some snow somewhere in the state, but that is a small-scale feature, and one that will likely not be handled terribly well by the models.
The trend of the modeling for the mid-week system is not your friend if you are a winter weather lover in the Carolinas. Most modeling continues to indicate a warmer and farther north solution with each run, and that is lessening the chance of significant wintry weather around here. It could trend back the other way, but I kinda doubt it. A lot of time between now and then, but right now it looks like more rain Wednesday than anything else.
Hold on to your hats!

Lot of problems getting the video uploaded today. Please click here to see today's video.
I intend the title both literally and figuratively. First, very windy conditions will be with us today and tomorrow. Secondly, the weather pattern we are heading in to is a wild one.
See the Carolina Weather Video above for lots of good information.
It is a warm and windy day today with highs in the lower 70s. Winds could gust over 40mph at times in the Piedmont, and I would not be surprised if a few trees came down.
While a shower is possible late this afternoon, I think be best window of opportunity for showers an a storm or two will be this evening. A strong to severe storm is possible with damaging winds being the main concerns.
It will remain breezy behind the system tomorrow with highs in the 60s and lots of sun.
We are indeed entering the active storm track as temps gradually trend colder. One system will bring us some cold rain showers Valentine's Day. And then there is the system next week.
Right now, the system is still on the table for mid-week. Most models continue to show an overall favorable synoptic setup for winter weather in the Carolinas....especially a 50-50 low, strong confluence over the NE US, and good cold air damming east of the mountains. However, we are still talking about a little more than a week from now, so lots can change.
It is still WAY too early for excitement or disappointment for snow fans, but to this point, my interest remains piqued. Stay tuned....
