9/25- Great weekend, model disagreement

HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE

Today and tomorrow are going to be identical to the last gajillion days, with highs in the 70s and bright sunshine pretty much the entire time, though a few high clouds are possible from that low spinning off the east coast. The million dollar question now becomes, though, exactly what happens to that surface low Sunday night. Our high pressure will be slowly moving out, and the low will be slowly, and I mean SLOWLY, coming up the coast. The question is whether the high will be gone in time to allow the rain to move in on Sunday night. The GFS says yes, the Euro says no. That means we'll just have to wait and see, but it's not really that big of a deal since I think many people would love to have the rain!

The Old Farmer's Almanac released their winter outlook today, and it said "snowy and extreme cold". Lovely!

Thoughts and prayers go out to those effected by the South Carolina tornadoes this morning.

In the Atlantic- Tropical Storm Ida has met its' demise in the central Atlantic, having basically sat in the same place for a week. Odd!

In the Pacific- A low will likely develop around Monday and then move into the west coast of Mexico...exactly how strong it will be when that happens remains to be seen, however.

Today in weather history- September 25, 2004- Hurricane Jeanne hits Florida, making landfall on Hutchinson Island, remarkably becoming the fourth MAJOR hurricane to hit Florida in just two months. This one causes $7.66 billion in damage, but most significantly kills more than 3,000 people in Haiti...as well as being notable for being the first storm to make a duplicate landfall in the same season, as Hurricane Frances had made landfall on Hutchinson Island just 3 weeks prior.
