High pressure over the northeastern states will control the weather in the Mid-Atlantic region for another day with comfortable temperatures and humidity levels though clouds will be abundant. The high shifts off the coast by early tomorrow and there will be a cold frontal system pushing this way from our northwest. As a result, showers are likely on Saturday and temperatures should peak in the middle 70’s for highs. This will not be an all-day heavy rain type event anywhere in the Mid-Atlantic region and that includes in State College, PA where Penn State plays its home opener at noon…showers only. The front sweeps through on Saturday night and its passage will usher in another cool, crisp, fall-like air mass for Sunday and Monday of early next week.

At the end of the 19th century, America was beaming with confidence and feeling bigger and stronger than ever before. The city of Galveston, Texas was booming with a population of 37,000 residents on the east end of Galveston Island which runs about thirty miles in length and anywhere from one and a half to three miles in width. Its position on the harbor of Galveston Bay along the Gulf of Mexico made it the center of trade and the biggest city in Texas in the year 1900. A quarter of a century earlier, a nearby town was destroyed by a powerful hurricane and this object lesson was heeded by many Galveston residents and talks of a seawall to protect the city were quite prevalent. However, no seawall was built and sand dunes along the shore were actually cut down to fill low areas in the city, removing what little barrier there was to the Gulf of Mexico. This proved to be a fatal mistake for the city of Galveston in what nobody could foresee happening to this magical place that seemed destined to become the New York of the Gulf of Mexico.

The climatological peak of the Atlantic Basin tropical season is just around the corner and there are now as many as five systems to monitor in coming days after a very lengthy quiet period. In fact, there has not been a newly named tropical storm in the Atlantic Basin since “Ernesto” first reached that designation on August 12th, and this is the longest such quiet stretch since the late 1960’s. With five separate tropical systems currently showing some life in the Atlantic Basin and near-term changes coming to the overall weather pattern, the absence of named tropical storms is very likely to soon come to an end.
