The dry pattern is back...

Halloween 2007 will be a winner across the Mid-Atlantic with plenty of sunshine and mild air. Temperatures here in the Metro area should reach the low 70s. And the milder weather will stick around for the first day of November, before a cold front brings readings back to near 60 degrees Friday afternoon.

Tropical Storm Noel...

Noel will make a quick right hand turn and head north of Cuba, passing just east of Florida. South Florida has been experiencing some strong winds due to the pressure gradient between the storm and high pressure over the Mid-Atlantic. All of the hurricane models keep Noel east of the coast and travelling into the North Atlantic by the weekend. As it passes well east of the Virginia coast, we could feel some gusty breezes on Friday, the result of the pressure gradient that will develop between the storm and a new area of high pressure building to our north by the end of the week.

This weekend and beyond...

The dry weather looks to continue through early next week. Temperatures will be close to seasonal averages over the weekend, with readings in the low to mid 60s during the day and upper 30s to low 40s at night. The next cold front due to approach late Tuesday into early Wednesday could usher in some decent chilly air for later next week. Stay tuned...
