Back to Work Tuesday. Bright, Warm but Less Humid…

Synopsis:

High pressure will move into the Northeast today.  Skies will be mainly sunny with seasonal temperatures for early September (average highs are around 80º).

Wednesday will be warmer and more humid with a Southwesterly flow. A cool front will pass late Wednesday with a few showers, much of the day will be dry.

It’ll feel more like fall late week with a Northerly wind.

Hurricane Dorian should track up and off our coast on Friday. There is a chance of some rain as the hurricane makes it’s closest approach but we shouldn’t experience rough conditions. The best chance of rain will be along the coast. Please check back to JMW for the very latest for our area.

Category 2 Hurricane Dorian is just North of Grand Bahama Island with 110mph sustained winds as of this writing. The storm continues it’s slow weakening trend, but still is a major hurricane. The hurricane is beginning to move again (after a 30 hour stall) to the Northwest at 2mph.

The computer models parallel the hurricane off the Florida coast just far enough to spare severe damage. Residents should never let their guard down until the hurricane is North of their latitude as any deviation in the track to the West will result in the situation becoming dire rapidly.

The potential storm track continues a Northeast motion up and just off the Georgia and Carolina coastline Wednesday and Thursday. Once again a little shift to the West could mean perilous situation. The hurricane then gets off our coastline on Friday. A period of rain is possible if the bands are close enough. The best chance is for coastal areas and Long Island. Dorian looks to stay far enough offshore to spare our area of its menacing affects.

Stay Tuned.

Tonight:

Clear. Lows near 70º in the City, the lower 60s inland. South winds at 5mph.

Saturday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the upper 70s.

Labor Day-Clouds Dominate. Sct’d Showers. Humid…

Synopsis:

A disturbance will approach from the West for Labor Day. More clouds than sun is excepted. Scattered showers are in the forecast. Local downpours are possible with a few thunderstorms.There will be dry times. One batch of rain will work in mid to late morning. Then there should be a break. More scattered showers and storms are possible later this afternoon and evening.

Warmer readings are anticipated as we head back to work and school midweek. The sun will dominate and readings will still feel Summery.

A cool front will pass late Wednesday with a few showers. It’ll feel more like fall late week with a Northerly wind. Hurricane Dorian should track up and off our coast on Friday. A few coastal showers are possible as the hurricane makes it’s closest approach but we shouldn’t experience rough conditions. Please check back to JMW for the very latest for our area.

Category 4 Hurricane Dorian has stalled over Grand Bahama Island with 155mph sustained winds as of this writing. Catastrophic damage continues.  Dorian is tied with the 1935 Labor Day Hurricane as the STRONGEST Atlantic hurricane to make landfall in modern history.

Upper level winds have weakened and the hurricane will sit for a least day between Grand Bahama and the Florida coast (2nd map above). Where Dorian makes landfall after the Bahamas is not known at this time. The million dollar question where does it go after that? Does it turn North before, along or after reaching the FL coast? If it turns North before reaching the coast much of FL will be spared it’s catastrophic effects. If it turns North just a bit later it will not be a good scenario. At this time the trend is for the storm to remain just offshore of Florida. Do not concentrate on the exact track but look at the cone of possibility. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. The entire Southeastern coast has the potential to feel the affects of Dorian later this upcoming week.

Stay Tuned.

Fine Start to the Labor Day Weekend…

Synopsis:

At this time it looks like we’ll take 2 out of 3 days for the Labor Day Holiday Weekend. High pressure will build in from the North today and tomorrow. Sun and clouds are expected with near seasonal temperatures (around 80º). On Labor Day Monday a cool front will approach. There is a chance of scattered showers. It doesn’t look like a washout.

Warmer readings are anticipated as we head back to work and school midweek.

Hurricane Dorian is now moving West in the Atlantic East of the Bahamas. Dorian is a major hurricane- category 4 status with sustained winds, as of this writing of 150mph. The hurricane will slow down as a strong ridge of high pressure over the Western Atlantic and steers the hurricane West. Upper level winds will become weak. Dorian may stall for a time over the Northern Bahamas (2nd map above). Where Dorian makes landfall is not known at this time. The million dollar question where does it go after that? Does it turn North before, along or after reaching the FL coast? If it turns North before reaching the coast much of FL will be spared it’s catastrophic effects. If it turns North just a bit later it will not be a good scenario. At this time the trend is for the storm to remain just offshore of Florida. Do not concentrate on the exact track but look at the cone of possibility. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. The entire Southeastern coast has the potential to feel the affects of Dorian later this upcoming week.

Getaway Friday-Bright, Warm & Low Humidity…

Synopsis:

High pressure will over the Southeast will result in a bright, warm and comfortable getaway day Friday. Readings will be several degrees above the average high of 80º.

It doesn’t look like a washout.

Hurricane Dorian continues to move Northwest in the Atlantic. Dorian is forecast to become a major hurricane- category 4 status with sustained winds of 140mph by this late this weekend and into Labor Day .  The computer models have slowed the hurricane considerably by the weekend into Monday as a strong ridge of high pressure over the Western Atlantic and steers the Hurricane West (2nd map above). Where the Dorian makes landfall is not known at this time. The concern is with the slow movement (basically a crawl) some areas of Florida will have a prolonged time of very dangerous conditions. Is it possible that the storm stays just off the coast before the North turn? Yes. But this solution right now is the outlier. Please do not concentrate on the exact track, but rather on the yellow cone of uncertainty.
