DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 7-11)
\nIn comes the October warmth and humidity as a warm front passes today, and then hangs on Sunday as a cold front makes a failed attempt as coming through the region, falling apart against high pressure building offshore. A south to southwesterly flow then paves the way for the remains of Hurricane Nate (making landfall this weekend near the MS\/AL coast on the Gulf of Mexico) to bring some significant rain to the region Monday, probably in two or three pulses which may also include some thunderstorm activity. This exits Tuesday but the humidity hangs on until another cold front passes by and brings in drier air for the middle of next week.
\nTHIS AFTERNOON: Sun\/cloud mix. More humid. Highs 68-75 South Coast, 75-82 elsewhere. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
\nTONIGHT: Variably cloudy. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
\nSUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Slight risk of passing showers and thunderstorms but most areas see nothing and those that see rain will have it briefly. Highs 68-75 South Coast, 75-82 elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.
\nSUNDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy evening. Cloudy overnight. Chance of rain before dawn. Areas of fog. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind light variable.
\nMONDAY: Cloudy. Episodes of showers and possible thunderstorms, with some downpours likely. Humid. Highs 67-73. Wind S 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
\nTUESDAY: Partly sunny. Risk of showers early. Lowering humidity. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.
\nWEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy. Breezy. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.<\/p>\n
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 12-16)
\nHigh pressure should be in general control with above normal temperatures overall, but a front from the north and a new high pressure area in Canada may cool it down slightly at the end of the period. Also have to watch this pattern because at times if the high pressure area is centered too far to the north we end up in a more marine flow and cloudiness can be more prevalent at times, and any disturbances to the south can get closer and threaten the region.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 17-21)
\n1 or 2 shots of very cool air are possible during this period as the pattern enters a transitional phase. Will keep an eye on it and elaborate further.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
