October 5 Sunny And Summer Like Sunday Afternoon Then Storms Tuesday Night Followed By A Chill
Sunday, October 5, 2025
Some areas already hit 80°F yesterday. Today will be a notch or two higher. If you are going to the Ravens home game, it may feel hot in the sun. Let’s hope they can turn the season back around with a win!
We also need to turn around our weather pattern: We are VERY DRY! The yearly rainfall deficit is approaching 5 inches again. As leaves turn and fall, we may start to get fire restrictions put back into place.
Our next chance for storms will be later on Tuesday.
The tropics are quieting down, and the outlook is minimal at best.
TROPICAL WEATHER
National Hurricane Center Outlook
If you are hearing about ‘two potential storms’ in the Atlantic, this is the latest look for the next 7 days!
It’s not that impressive!
The region across the Gulf is NOT going to become tropical.
The Atlantic Look is up to 60% and follows the last few storms. The climatology of this region for this time of year would support staying out to sea.
Local Weather Look: SUNDAY WEATHER
Surface Weather
High Pressure is what dominates our weather. While we get a warmer wind from the South, the other side is pushing moisture with rain into South Carolina and helping produce tropical downpours across the Gulf near New Orleans.
Reminder: That is NOT going to become an organized tropical storm.

In Case You Missed It
I posted a report earlier about The La Niña Watch. This is expected to be brief and trend back to neutral, which could result in an active and snowy winter.

RESTATING MY MESSAGE ABOUT DYSLEXIA
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
