Here’s today’s Bottom Line
A continued stretch of dry and quiet weather is expected through the end of October. High pressure ridging will continue to dominate the weather pattern. High temperatures today and tomorrow will be in the mid to upper 70s, rising to around 80 Thursday through Halloween.
Low-end rain chances arrive Sunday into Monday. Various models and ensembles appear to showing the remnants of tropical storm Vance, presently out over the tropical Pacific (!!), reaching the Tennessee valley and southeast US early next week. However, there is still a lot of uncertainty with respect to rainfall amounts, if any. The AI guidance is much drier, while some GEFS/GFS ensemble members are wetter with a more developed wave of low pressure. At this stage, confidence in expected rain early next week is low. If this trends dry, the next best chance would have to
wait until late NEXT week.
Drought conditions will continue to worsen across the entire region.
Tropics: Nothing doing.
