Large high pressure will dominate the weather scene for the next couple of days from Bermuda to the Gulf of Mexico and this type of pattern will lead to more mid-summer-like temperatures. Highs today and tomorrow are likely to reach the mid and upper 80’s and there can be scattered showers, but steady rain is not likely. Elsewhere, a much colder-than-normal air mass has dropped into the western and central US and it will spread across the nation over the next couple of days albeit in a modified form. A strong cold front at the leading edge of this air mass will arrive in the eastern US on Thursday night/early Friday.

Highs today, tomorrow and Thursday are likely to reach the mid and upper 80’s and there can be scattered showers, but steady rain is not likely. Elsewhere, a much colder-than-normal air mass has dropped into the western and central US and it will spread across the nation over the next few days albeit in a modified form.

High pressure has shifted off the Mid-Atlantic coastline and this will allow for more of an onshore flow across central Florida with high moisture content continuing the chances for showers and thunderstorms. Elsewhere, a tropical system over the western Gulf of Mexico will push northward over the next couple of days and combine with an eastward moving cold front to generate significant rainfall from the northern Gulf to the Ohio Valley.

High pressure is headed towards the Mid-Atlantic coastline and an onshore flow of more moist air has developed across the Florida Peninsula. As a result, showers have formed and there will be a threat for PM thunderstorms and the rain threat will continue for the next few days. In addition, there will be a persistent onshore flow with 15-20 mph E-NE quite common over the next few days.

A weak cool front will stall across southern Florida today and in the wake of its passage we’ll enjoy relief in temperatures, but winds will become quite brisk. High pressure will head towards the Mid-Atlantic coastline later in the week and this will allow for more of an easterly flow and higher moisture amounts around here increasing the chance of rain on Thursday and Friday.

Ahead of the front, temperatures ca climb to near the 90 degree mark for highs, but should be confined to the lower 80’s on Wednesday. In addition, the winds will become noticeable on Wednesday behind the frontal passage out of the north and gusting to 20 mph or so at times.

A tropical system continues to slowly intensify over the Gulf of Mexico and has now reached named (Nestor) tropical storm status. This system is moving to the northeast and will approach the northern Gulf coast later today and tonight and then move inland across the southeast US this weekend. By late Sunday, this tropical storm will likely move offshore somewhere near the Outer Banks of North Carolina and it could generate some rainfall on its NW side in the Mid-Atlantic region late Saturday night/Sunday morning. Looking in the extended time period, some impressive cold air outbreaks are likely to impact the central and eastern US during the last week of October and the first week of November – perhaps leading to quite a chilly Halloween for lots of people across the eastern half of the nation.

Low pressure will pull out of the Gulf of Mexico and impact the region later today into Saturday. The tropical system is likely to become a named tropical storm (Nestor) and it could result in some severe thunderstorm activity here later tonight into tomorrow. Any thunderstorm that forms late today/tonight can contain torrential downpours and damaging wind gusts of 50-60 mph. Drier air is likely to push in on Sunday following the passage of the low as it pulls away to our north and east.

A weakening frontal system will continue to produce some clouds in this area as well as the chance for showers and thunderstorms. By later and on Friday, central Florida may begin to be influenced by developing low pressure over the northern Gulf region and this system will push deeper moisture into the region. As the low pulls out of the Gulf this weekend, it could result in numerous showers and thunderstorms for the Florida Peninsula.
