AM Rain Coastal Areas. PM Sun West. Windy. Matthew Leaves US…

Synopsis:

The combination of Post-Cyclone Matthew moving off the Outer Banks of North Carolina and a cool front along the coast will result in an area of rain that will mainly cover the I-95 corridor Southeast to the coast today.  It’ll rain in these areas through the morning.  North and West it’ll be cloudy but mainly dry.  As the storm and front continue to move East the rain will  taper off from West to East this afternoon (FutureCast Cloud Cover & Radar above).  The skies will brighten and the sun will return inland. It’ll be windy with strong high pressure moving into the Great Lakes and the departing storm.

A dry stretch is in the making for the majority of next week with high pressure reigning supreme.  It’ll be sunny and cooler than average to start the week.

Hurricane Matthew has lost it’s characteristics and is now post-tropical and moving off the Outer Banks of North Carolina.  Record rain fell in North Carolina and winds did gust above hurricane force at the coast.  The storm will continue to weaken and move out to sea.
