2:00 PM | **Tropical Storm Fiona to impact Caribbean islands this weekend…differing storm tracks thereafter are discussed with the most likely scenario in my opinion**

Paul Dorian

We have reached the mid-point of September and this is climatologically-speaking right around the peak time of the Atlantic Basin tropical season. True to form, there is a now a tropical storm named “Fiona” over the central Atlantic and it is likely to impact the Caribbean islands of Puerto Rico and Hispaniola later this weekend. Beyond that, it is somewhat unclear as to where Fiona will travel with one scenario featuring a continued movement to the west and towards the Gulf of Mexico and a second possibility with a “curvature to the north” over the Bahamas and then the western Atlantic off the eastern seaboard.

7:00 AM | *Coolest night so far this season is on the way*

Paul Dorian

A secondary cold front passed through the region last night and its passage has ushered in a refreshing air mass to the Mid-Atlantic region with a touch of fall for the next couple of days. In fact, tonight should be the coolest so far this season with late night lows way down in the 50’s in many spots. High pressure will stay in control this weekend and there will be a warming trend, but temperatures will still be rather comfortable with manageable humidity levels.

A cold front passed through the region on Tuesday and a secondary cool front will come through this evening (without any precipitation) and it will set the stage for a refreshing few days in the Mid-Atlantic region. Temperatures today can climb to near the 80 degree mark for afternoon highs and then should be confined to the 70’s on Thursday and there will be a refreshing breeze as well. High pressure will stay in control through the reminder of the week and quite likely right through the upcoming weekend.

Paul Dorian

A cold front will slide across the region today and it’ll usher in a refreshing air mass for the Mid-Atlantic region with lowering humidity and a crisp fall-like night is on the way. High pressure will control the weather on Wednesday and then a secondary (and dry) cool front pushes through on Wednesday night. The remainder of the week looks quite nice with high pressure remaining in control and it could very well stick around right through the upcoming weekend.

1:50 PM | **Showers/storms are popping in the Mid-Atlantic region and there can be some heavy rainfall in the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor**

Paul Dorian

The combination of a vigorous upper-level trough of low pressure and an approaching cold front is setting off the development of numerous showers and thunderstorms in the Mid-Atlantic region and some of these can result in heavy rainfall from this afternoon into later tonight. The showers and storms can reach the DC and Philly metro regions anytime after 2 pm and then during the late afternoon hours in the NYC metro region and the threat in all places will continue into late evening. The front pushes through the region later tomorrow setting the stage for some nice weather on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
