Good Friday all- welcome to a long weekend!
Unfortunately, though, it's going to start out rather miserably for us here in Connecticut. Today itself looks absolutely fine with average temperatures (mid 60s) and sunshine. Tomorrow, though, looks horrid. In fact, it is going to be absolutely pouring all morning tomorrow, and it wouldn't stun me for areas to receive one to two inches of rain tomorrow. The other parts of the weekend look delightful, though, and I even expect the weather to be alright by 4-5 PM tomorrow, so it's certainly possible to do the outdoor things you want to do this weekend...just do them on Sunday or Monday. Beyond that, showers are possible Tuesday, and Wednesday looks like a total washout.
In the Atlantic- The low north of Hispanola is probably about to become Tropical Storm Fay, but it poses no threat to the US. It does, however, pose one to Bermuda...so it's worth watching for them!
In the Pacific- As discussed previously, the low off Ecuador could well become Tropical Storm Trudy (Yes, that's the T name in the Pacific..odd indeed) early next week. Otherwise, the basin is quiet.
Today in weather history- October 10, 2009- Nome, Alaska receives the first fall thunderstorm in the town's history, recording five lightning bolts between 8 and 9 PM. Nome rarely gets thunderstorms in general due to it's geography in far western Alaska, but this just goes to show that storms happen everywhere!
