Oct 16: Another Cold Air Invasion Detected!

A cold front will move through the region late Saturday night/early Sunday and deliver another shot of cold air to the region. High temperatures on Sunday might only reach the 50s with overnight lows then dropping well into the 30s (40s for coastal areas). Here’s the latest GFS showing surface temperatures at 8AM Sunday morning:

The frontal passage should be mostly dry with only a few isolated sprinkles here and there throughout the region. It’s about that time for temperatures to drop in accordance with seasonal averages anyway. This air mass might seem a little more relevant however, given the above average temperature anomalies we saw earlier this week. Hurricane Gonzalo will hit Bermuda pretty hard in the next 24-36 hours. The only effect for the east coast will be intensified surf/rip currents. The full weekend outlook will be posted tomorrow. Be safe! JC
