A cold front will cross the area this morning and pave the way for a cool and dry rest of the week in the Mid-Atlantic region. Temperatures today can climb into the lower 70’s for afternoon highs and then will likely be confined to the 60’s for the rest of the week with overnight lows down in the 40’s. On the tropical scene, Milton is now a category 2 hurricane and is likely to intensify into a “major” hurricane as it crosses the Gulf of Mexico with a possible landfall on Wednesday afternoon somewhere along Florida’s west-central Gulf coast and perhaps right in the Tampa Bay region.

A cold front will cross the area this morning and pave the way for a cool and dry rest of the week in the Mid-Atlantic region. Temperatures today can climb into the lower 70’s for afternoon highs and then will likely be confined to the 60’s for the rest of the week with overnight lows well down in the 40’s. In an instant classic on Sunday, the weather was spectacular in South Philly for the Phillies/Mets game and it should be dry and cool in NYC for games on Tuesday and Wednesday.

A cold front will cross the area this morning and pave the way for a cool and dry rest of the week in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Another “major” hurricane may be headed towards Florida’s Gulf coast with a possible mid-week landfall right near the Tampa Bay region. “Milton” became a named tropical storm on Saturday over the southwestern Gulf of Mexico and it is likely to attain hurricane status by later Sunday as it begins a move to the east. Given the generally favorable environmental conditions, Milton could then become a “major” hurricane as early as Monday as it continues on a trek towards Florida’s west coast.

The overall pattern during the next several days will produce rather nice weather for us featuring dry conditions and plenty of sunshine on a daily basis. High temperatures during the next several days will generally fall into the range of the low-to-mid 80’s which is well above normal for this time of year.

A frontal system will cause some instability around here today producing a chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms. The weekend is shaping up pretty nicely for the region with plenty of sunshine expected on both days and warm weather conditions featuring afternoon highs generally in the middle 80’s.

Weak high pressure remains in control of the weather around here today with clouds and limited sunshine expected and then another weak cool front will pass through in the overnight hours…perhaps generating a shower or two. The frontal passage later tonight will pave the way for a nice weekend in the Mid-Atlantic region with plenty of sunshine expected on both days. Another cool front will cross the area on Sunday night and Monday and this one will usher in a cool air mass with highs on Tuesday and Wednesday likely to be confined to the 60’s. Two other notes…a tropical system may form over the Gulf of Mexico by early next week with its highest chance of impact likely limited to Florida sometime later next week. Also, the strongest solar flare of the current solar cycle, #25, will impact the Earth’s atmosphere later this weekend and the potential exists for widespread auroras.

The frontal passage later tonight will pave the way for a nice weekend in the Mid-Atlantic region and a great start to “Red October” for the Phillies opening two playoff games on Saturday and Sunday (both at 4 PM). Another cool front will cross the area on Sunday night and Monday and this one will usher in a cool air mass with highs on Tuesday and Wednesday likely to be confined to the 60’s.

Solar Cycle 25 is nearing its solar maximum and - as is typical during this phase of a solar cycle - there has been a lot of solar activity in recent weeks with numerous sunspots. The strongest solar flare yet during this current solar cycle took place earlier today with an explosion originating from sunspot region known officially as “AR3842”. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded today’s blast as an X9.0 (where X-class denotes the most intense flares) and it may result in widespread auroras this weekend as the “coronal mass ejection” strikes Earth.
