1969 was a remarkable year and will be long remembered as the year when man first walked on the moon, the Miracle Mets shocked the sports world, and the Woodstock Festival took place in upstate New York. It will also be remembered as the year when a major hurricane – Hurricane Camille – struck the United States as a category 5 storm and the second most intense tropical cyclone on record (only the 1935 Labor Day hurricane had a lower central pressure at landfall). Hurricane Camille made landfall in Mississippi and wreaked havoc from the Gulf States to as far inland as the Mid-Atlantic with widespread flooding, record rainfall, and it cost the lives of several hundreds of people along its path of destruction.

High pressure slides to our east here today and this change in position will result in warmer, more humid, and unsettled conditions for the next few days with a daily chance of showers and thunderstorms. In addition to the ridge moving to the east, an upper-level trough has pushed into the center of the nation and the southerly flow between the two systems is increasing our overall humidity levels across the Tennessee Valley region.

High pressure will shift offshore from later tonight into Friday and this repositioning will open the door to influence here this weekend by a low pressure system and its associated frontal systems. As a result, the chance of showers and thunderstorms will increase late tomorrow night and rain will be a threat on both weekend days…some of the weekend rain can be heavy at times. The cold front trailing from the low pressure system will push across the region from Sunday night into Monday likely resulting in additional showers and thunderstorms and, at the same time, Hurricane Ernesto will pass by well to our east producing rough surf/rip tides in the Atlantic. A very comfortable air mass arrives in the Mid-Atlantic region in time for Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.
