The tropical scene is still active and kicking in the Atlantic Basin as we begin the month of November with a couple systems to currently monitor and signs point to the possibility of another system near the east coast in about 7-10 days. Tropical Storm “Martin” - soon to be Hurricane “Martin” - is located well out over the open waters of the Atlantic Ocean and will become a powerful “extratropical” storm in the North Atlantic later this week. “Lisa” is now a category 1 hurricane and is closing in on Belize in Central America and could ultimately emerge over the Bay of Campeche. Elsewhere, the overall pattern looks to remain warmer-than-normal across the eastern US during the next 7-10 days, but important changes can come in terms of temperatures for the middle and latter parts of November.

A cold front passed through the region early yesterday and drier air filtered in during the PM hours. High pressure has built into the Northeast US and will be in control of the weather around here over the next few days. The result will be plenty of daily sunshine and comfortably warm temperatures for the beginning of November as the overall weather pattern for the eastern US in coming days will feature above-normal temperatures.

High pressure will move offshore today and a weak low pressure system will push into the Mid-Atlantic region from the Tennessee Valley. As a result, showers are a threat here by later tonight and a thunderstorm can pop up after midnight. High pressure will return by mid-week with dry weather and slightly milder-than-normal temperatures.

High pressure from the Great Lakes will remain in control today as it slides to our north and it should provide enough protection for us to have a pretty decent weekend with lots of brilliant colors to enjoy on the trees. An area of weak low pressure will push in this direction by Monday (Halloween Day) with some shower activity, but it doesn’t look like a significant rain event.

Plenty of moisture remains entrenched in the lower levels of the atmosphere and this will result in one more day featuring plenty of clouds around here and additional light rain/drizzle and some patchy fog. A weakening cool front will cross the region tonight and it’ll have enough strength to produce clearing in the late night hours and the sun should return on Thursday to go along with a noticeable breeze. High pressure is likely to hang on long enough to result in decent weather here on Friday and for much of this weekend, but upstream disturbances could threaten us with some shower activity by early next week.

Low pressure that formed off the east coast this weekend will pass by to our northeast today and high pressure will begin to get re-established in the Mid-Atlantic region. Later this week, the chance of showers will increase again as another low pressure system will push towards the Great Lakes from the south-central states. This system will swing a cold front in our direction raising the chances at mid-week for shower activity in the region.

Slightly milder air will move into the region today as a light south-to-southwesterly flow of air forms on the backside of a departing high pressure system. Temperatures today will climb into the lower 60’s and then into the mid or upper 60’s on Saturday afternoon with some sunshine on both days. The weather for the Yankees playoff game on Saturday should be cooperative, but it’ll become somewhat questionable on Sunday as a coastal low threatens to bring us showers during the second half of the weekend.
