There is a traffic jam of weather off the East Coast, but a little bubble of dry and warm air will expand today. This is part one of the improvement.
The tropical weather includes Hurricane Humberto, which reached Category 5 yesterday. It is back down to Cat 4 this morning with 155 mph winds. This is not our worry, and actually will help pull the newer storm behind it.
Tropical Depression 9 is expected to be named Imelda later today over the Bahamas. All the IFs in the forecast have more confidence, and this includes NO US LANDFALL. It will stall off the coast and then turn East. High waves will still produce more beach erosion along the Carolina coast. Farther inland and here in the Mid Atlantic, we will miss it as an early Fall airmass will protect us with a big cool down.
Hurricane Humberto was captured from the International Space Station when it was Category 5 on Saturday:
The cold front has cleared the coast, but clouds linger across coastal Delmarva.
Humberto is a Category 4 hurricane with 155 mph winds and is still expected to track around the west side of Bermuda.
Tropical Depression 9 should get named Imelda today over the Bahamas. This will stall and be steered by:
I want to show how these two tropical systems will NOT MERGE. However, the tracks will cross over the same area of the Atlantic.
Winds are 155 mph and will gradually weaken over cooler water.
Expected to get named Tropical Storm Imelda today and eventually become a Category 1 Hurricane off the Southeast US coast.
This is forecast to stall and turn East under the influence of multiple factors.
Higher confidence with the stall and turn away from the East Coast.
The waves are still expected to cause further beach erosion.
High Pressure will bring a true feel of Fall along with dry air. That is the protective block for us.

A breezy wind FROM the North and Northeast is a signal of what is on the way for the rest of the week.
I posted a report earlier about The La Niña Watch. This is expected to be brief and trend back to neutral and may result in an active and snowy winter.

I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos and occasional other glitches. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer glitches I may miss. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here, you may have missed it: I have dyslexia and found out during my second year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree and being the first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. One of my professors told me that I had made it that far without knowing and to not let it be a crutch going forward. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely correct! I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. I can also make mistakes in forecasting. No one is perfect at predicting the future. All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky. There has been no editor who can check my work while writing and to have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to edit typos when she is available. That could be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me… It’s part of my charm. #FITF
