Good Saturday, everyone. We have a different wind blowing out there today as a southwest flow kicks in along and ahead of our much-anticipated fall cold front. This boundary slides through Sunday, bringing some of the coolest air you will ever find to close the month of August.

This big blast of fall encompasses much of the eastern half of the country, bringing well below normal temps each day next week…

Highs are in the 70s from Monday through Thursday with overnight lows around 50. Some mornings may very well drop into the upper 40s as the airmass turns absolutely bone dry. I’ve never seen August dewpoints as low as what the models are indicating next week. Upper 30s and low 40s for dewpoints is absurd…

Upper 40s would be near record territory…

The potential is there for a slow-moving system to move our way over the Labor Day holiday weekend. The EURO AI has been showing this for several days and continues to hit this system pretty hard. This animation starts next Sunday and goes through the following Wednesday…

The GFS is picking up on this system, but it’s quicker in moving it through our region. This animation starts Friday night and goes through the following Tuesday morning…

This may be ahead of another fairly deep trough developing for the first week of September. The EURO AI Ensembles is leading the way with this potential…

Erin is no more, but the National Hurricane Center is showing a few more benign systems…

I leave you with your storm tracking toys for the day…

Make it a great Saturday and take care.
