A Beautiful and Breezy Thursday
Hello, I'm Meteorologist, Lauren Whisenhunt.
A dry cold front will approach us today, reinforcing the cool autumn air just in time for the weekend. No rain chances are expected the next several days but we will see a few more clouds build in this afternoon. Therefore, expect partly cloudy skies with temperatures in the mid 70s today. Hang on to your hats because we will see breezy, northerly winds this afternoon between 10 and 20 mph. Also, grab a wind breaker or sweater if you're planning on being out and about because it will feel cooler than it really is due to the wind chill factor.
Friday we will have more abundant sunshine with highs near 70 degrees.
Mornings will continue to be clear and cool in the mid to upper 40s and the afternoons will be mild with temperatures in the lower 70's right on through Saturday and Sunday. Typically for the First of November, highs are near 69 degrees with overnight lows around 46, so we are right on target for this time of year!
Enjoy this great string of Fall weather we are having!
In the tropics, Tropical Storm Noel is strengthening off the southeast coast of Florida. Tropical Storm Noel will bring strong winds and heavy rains to southern Florida on Thursday into early Friday. The center of this storm is not expected to make landfall over the U.S. The official forecast track has Noel moving over the western Bahamas as a strong Tropical Storm and then racing northeast toward the north Atlantic Ocean where it will lose its tropical characteristics and become absorbed by a cold front.
