Discussion
High pressure will shift offshore by tomorrow and this positioning will keep us on the warm side for the next couple of days producing low-level southwesterly winds in the atmosphere on its backside. A strong cold front will slide through the area early in the weekend and its passage will usher in the coolest air of the season so far. Sprawling and strong high pressure will anchor this cool air mass and dominate the weather scene in the Northeast US from this weekend into the middle part of next week. Elsewhere, tropical depression Karl could impact Bermuda this weekend, but it looks like it’ll stay safely away from the US coastline as should Tropical Storm Lisa which is currently farther east than Karl and it should stay out in the open Atlantic.
