Discussion
Hurricane Matthew will impact greatly much of the Southeast US coastal region during the next couple of days from Florida to North Carolina, but it should stay away from the Mid-Atlantic region. Matthew is likely to turn sharply northeast once it reaches the South Carolina/North Carolina border region and an eventual looping track will likely prevent it from coming near the Mid-Atlantic coastline and ultimately, it could actually come back around and affect the Southeast US/Bahamas region for a second time in a much weakened state. Meanwhile, here in the Mid-Atlantic, a strong cold front can generate some shower activity on Saturday before ushering in a cooler air mass for the latter part of the weekend and early part of next week.
