Discussion
A cold front will cross the area this morning and pave the way for a cool and dry rest of the week in the Mid-Atlantic region. Temperatures today can climb into the low-to-mid 70’s for afternoon highs and then will likely be confined to the 60’s for the rest of the week with overnight lows well down in the 40’s. In an instant classic on Sunday, the weather was spectacular in South Philly for the Phillies/Mets game and it should be dry and cool in NYC for games on Tuesday and Wednesday.
On the tropical scene, Milton is now a category 2 hurricane and is likely to intensify into a “major” hurricane as it crosses the Gulf of Mexico with a possible landfall on Wednesday afternoon somewhere along Florida’s west-central Gulf coast and perhaps right in the Tampa Bay region.
