7:00 AM | *A taste of fall on the way for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday...crisp, cool air mass to follow passage of cold front*

Paul Dorian

A cold front crosses the region later today and can bring with it more in the way of scattered shower and thunderstorm activity. Some of the afternoon and evening storms can be strong, but much of the time today will be rain-free. Following the passage of the cold front, a cooler and crisp air mass arrives for Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday with daytime highs in the 70’s - well below-normal for this time of year - and overnight lows way down in the 50’s. In fact, some spots can see temperatures drop to the upper 40’s for late night lows during this upcoming stretch of fall-like weather across the Mid-Atlantic region.

7:00 AM | *Hotter and drier for the next couple of days*

Paul Dorian

The overall weather pattern will become hotter and drier today and those conditions will prevail on Saturday as well with highs both today and tomorrow generally in the middle 90’s. It stays very warm on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, but the weather will become more unsettled once again with a daily chance of showers and thunderstorms.

7:00 AM | *Chance of PM showers and storms each of the next few days*

Paul Dorian

High pressure slid to our east on Thursday and this change in position has resulted in an influx of warm, humid air and the overall weather will become more unsettled for the next few days. In fact, the chance of showers and thunderstorms that increases today will stick around all weekend long with temperatures trending downward a bit with tomorrow’s highs near 90 and then the mid-to-upper 80’s for Sunday. A more comfortable air mass arrives for the early and middle portions of next week following the passage of a cool frontal system.

6:30 AM | *An unsettled weekend in the Mid-Atlantic region with the chance for some downpours...very nice air mass for Tuesday and Wednesday*

Paul Dorian

High pressure that has been in control of our weather for much of this week has now shifted off the coast and this repositioning will open the door to more humid air and the return of shower and thunderstorm activity. The shower and thunderstorm activity can begin late tonight and should continue on an occasional basis on both weekend days and some of the rain can be heavy at times. Temperatures will climb to quite warm levels later this afternoon with highs in the upper 80's, but they should be confined to the lower 80’s on Saturday and Sunday largely as a result of the expected copious amounts of clouds. A cold front that will be trailing low pressure to our north this weekend will push through here later Monday and it’ll usher in a beautiful air mass for Tuesday and Wednesday of next week with comfortable temperatures and humidity levels.

Elsewhere, Hurricane Ernesto will impact Bermuda on Saturday and then likely maintain hurricane strength for awhile later in the weekend as it pushes towards the Atlantic Canada. While the center of Ernesto will be well to the east this weekend, there can be rough surf and rip tides up and down the east coast on both weekend days.

*This week marks the 55th anniversary of Hurricane Camille…a "category 5" at landfall and one of the most devastating storms in US history*

Paul Dorian

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.

7:00 AM | *High temperatures near the 90-degree mark next few days*

Paul Dorian

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.

7:00 AM | *Showers and thunderstorms return to the region this weekend and there can be some downpours*

Paul Dorian

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.
