WEATHER TRIVIA:

1979 – HURRICANE FREDERICK HITS MOBILE, ALABAMA – 132MPH WINDS..2.3 BILLION IN DAMAGES

WEATHER-CAST

OUR FRONT NOW EXTENDS FROM CAPE COD TO ATLANTA. IT WILL SINK A LITTLE SOUTH, OTHERWISE WILL CONTINUE TO SERVE AS AN INSTIGATOR FOR SOME SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS FROM TIME TO TIME RIGHT INTO FRIDAY. IT WILL STAY HUMID AND WITH ANY SUN..TEMPS COULD EASILY HEAD TOWARD OR JUST OVER 80S.

BY FRIDAY…HURRICANE FLORENCE WILL BE APPROACHING THE CAROLINAS. WIND AND RAIN FROM FLORENCE WILL BE LIKELY FROM SOUTHERN DELAWARE TO EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA. MEANWHILE OF RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL NOSE IN ACROSS THE NORTHEAST, AND IT COULD BE JUST IN TIME FOR THE WEEKEND. LOOKS LIKE RAIN FROM FLORENCE COULD BE CONFINED FROM SOUTHERN VIRGINIA TO SOUTH CAROLINA AND THE TARGET STILL SEEMS TO BE NO. CAROLINA.

THE FORECAST:

TODAY: CLOUDS- SOME SUN- HUMID – A SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM – 80

TONIGHT: CLOUDY- SHOWERS AND A THUNDERSTORM – MID 60S

THURS: MOSTLY CLOUDY- SHOWERS AND A THUNDERSTORM – 75-80

FRI: CLOUDY, SHOWERS – LOWER 80S

Fear Florence ! Very Dangerous Florence is already sending feeder bands of rain toward the Carolinas. 140 mph winds could increase today. Storm will slow or stall upon approaching the coasts of the Carolinas. Models still target No. Carolina..but Euro Model wants to bring it south along the coast and then move it inland near Savannah, Ga. May not be wrong. No matter what..life threatening storm surge..flooding and winds will hit the coasts from N.C. to Georgia. No one along these coasts should try to ride this one out..if so..they should put their telephone numbers on the soles of their shoes. Below- latest track of Florence & expected wind time table…and rainfall. ​Below-= today’s risk of severe weather in dark green and yellow…followed by animated maps.
