Sunday October 24

Big changes are on the way with the weather, and perhaps with the leaves around you.  If you recall last week I expected frost this morning. That is not the case, as we have clouds and some rain showers with a disturbance. That will pass through with a few showers, but improving this afternoon.

We are in the track of those Pacific Storms reaching us ever couple of days…

Headlines Ahead:

• Today: Early Showers, Better Afternoon. 
• Monday: Warmer Then Evening Strong/Severe Storm
• Tuesday: Windy And Cooler
• Thursday: Rain Late
• Friday: Stormy

Morning Surface Weather

A disturbance this morning will swing through, then we get a break before storms arrive late Monday.

Morning Temperatures

A cluster of rain showers is expected to pass through mid day, then improve this afternoon.

Severe Storm Outlook

Snapshot Monday Evening

Trying to time this line in our region. Timing may play a role in the potential for severe storms, or losing some punch if it is too late after sunset. 

Animation: Storm Track Monday-Wednesday 

Tracking this system for a few days will swing a band of rain/storms our way after dark Monday, then switch the winds into Wednesday turning us much cooler. 

Snapshot Wednesday Morning

If this Low Pressure develops and stalls over New England, it will enhance the cool winds and lingering showers for us.

Looking Ahead
Thursday to Saturday

The next storm will be stronger hitting the west coast, and for us as well. The timing is the hard part as it will be racing across the US.  Here it looks like arrival Thursday evening/night… Lasting into the start of the weekend. 

The main ‘rain day’ for us will be Friday.

Look closely and you might see a spot of blue in West Virginia. There may be the first snow observed at Snowshoe, and elevations over 4,000 Ft.

7 Day Forecast

Monday will be a brief warm up, then the week will be dominated by a few storms and progressively cooler air.
