DAYS 1-5 (SEPTEMBER 24-28)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Discussion\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The seas have calmed down, the fire danger remains high, and this round of high altitude smoke has been sporadic and not nearly as thick as the previous one. The feel of summer is back and will continue through the weekend, but will there be any rain between now and then? No. We’ll see high clouds fanning across the sky today from the remains of Beta, the last active tropical system from the Atlantic Basin before the current quieter period. A cold front will arrive Friday, pretty much unnoticed, as it will be falling apart upon arrival. It may result in a few cumulus clouds – that’s about it. The weekend will see a gradual increase in humidity with the source region of our air basically a modified version of the tropical air mass that Beta was born in over the Gulf of Mexico several days ago. By Monday, we finally can talk about a chance of showers as the first of a series of fronts approaches in response to a larger scale trough developing and moving through the Midwest and Great Lakes. It’s too early to know the intensity and coverage of shower activity, and we can fine-tune that outlook as it gets closer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (SEPTEMBER 29- OCTOBER 3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The passage of an upper trough of low pressure will take place during the last couple days of September to the first couple days of October, with our area on the warmer and more humid side to start with, ending up on the cooler and drier side eventually. A few episodes of showery weather are likely during the transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 4-8)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Watch for a quick wet weather event to start the period if energy from the west interacts with moisture near the East Coast, otherwise high pressure takes back over with mainly dry and mild weather for the balance of the period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
