Today
We can see
the storm that impacted much of the Northeast, is moving across the Gulf of
Maine heading toward the Canadian Maritimes. This will be well to our east tonight. The widespread rain showers that were over
Maine, are tapering off, with only a few areas of drizzle remaining. The rain
should be over for most of Maine by midafternoon, with gust a few lingering
showers over far eastern Maine this evening.
A trough
hanging around the region behind the departing system will produce scattered
clouds and a few very isolated showers today across the rest of the region. With temperatures rising a bit from
yesterday.
Later today
into tomorrow high pressure will move in and we will see plenty of clearing
skies west to east. With all the sun, temperatures will become much milder for
Wednesday, with it feeling very summer like for later Wednesday through
Thursday, with the region looking to be dry. Then Thursday night and Friday, a
cold front will approach and move through with increasing clouds and scattered
rain showers. Saturday will see the cold front exit the region, leaving clearer
skies and cooler temperatures in its wake. The cold front will become stationary and will
linger over southern parts of the region, producing isolated showers. At the
same time a disturbance will be rolling across Canada bringing a chance for
some rain showers for northern parts of the region. Isolated showers will be around for Monday.
Before high pressure moves back in for Tuesday.
The
Atlantic
With the nor’easter grabbing the attention, I haven’t been posting on the
tropical Atlantic
Gonzalo dissipated and Fay has led a strange life, she became a tropical storm,
then become a tropical depression only to Fay redeveloped into a tropical storm
last week, then on Sunday she reverted back to a depression. She has hung
around the Atlantic and she is still
clinging on as she has regained tropical storm status as of this
morning. Fay has max sustained winds of 40 mph, min
central pressure of 1008mb, tracking southwest at 13 mph. she should become post
tropical at some point.
a low-pressure system in the subtropical Atlantic that was Invest 91L became Tropical
Storm Hanna and formed Monday. Currently
TS Hanna has max sustained winds of 45 mph, a central pressure of 1002 mb tracking ESE at 15 mph. Hanna should
continue toward the ESE for the next 12 -24 hours or so, before starting a turn
more to the north and then ENE. Hanna should be over by the weekend.
Hanna nor Fay is going to be a threat to the U.S.
The next storm to form in the Atlantic, if any, would be Isaias.
We will be watching the Gulf next week, with a chance for something to develop on a stalled front in the Bay of Campeche.
This is the time of year we watch the Gulf and Southwest Atlantic
I will
release part one of the winter outlook this afternoon
