The cold front that moved through Central Virginia didn't produce a whole lot of rain. In fact, here at CBS 6, we only received .05" from the late afternoon showers. The front will move southward into the Carolinas, and we have some very nice weather to enjoy the next couple of days, with lower humidity and afternoon highs in the low to mid 80s.
Next front arrives Friday night...
The next cold front will approach the region Friday evening. It could spark a few scattered showers and thunderstorms, although I don't expect any significant problems for Friday night high school football games. Behind this front, another "cool" and dry air mass will settle over the area for the weekend. I expect temperatures by Sunday to average in the 70s by day and the 50s by night. A few upper 40s are possible in the coolest rural communities!
The longer range and the tropics...
The longer range data is not showing the additional cool-down I was mentioning yesterday. In fact, temperatures should be at or above average later next week (Sept. 20-23), although that may depend on a potential coastal system showing up in the computer projections.
The cluster of showers and thunderstorms that is a little over 1000 miles east of the Windward Islands is showing some good organization tonight and I wouldn't be surprised if it is declared a tropical depression on Wednesday.
