Welcome to October! The twin tropical threats of Hurricanes Humberto (upper right) and Imelda (lower right) are steadily progressing across the Atlantic, moving away from the U.S. as shown on this infrared satellite loop:
Current impacts to the U.S. from these storms are comprised of rough surf at East Coast beaches but little else.
Meanwhile, Chase City "won" the low temperature award this Wednesday morning with a reading of 60º. Other sites around the county dropped into the low and mid-60s. Morning clouds will gradually thin after lunch, with the sunset - at 6:57 p.m. - likely to be visible. Afternoon highs will top out in the mid-70s amid northeasterly breezes gusting up to 20 mph.
A cool Canadian high pressure system is taking charge of local weather for the next several days. Clear skies and drier air will result in chilly overnight temperatures, with Thursday morning lows sagging into the upper 40s(!) at some Mecklenburg County locales. Tomorrow's high temperature will only be in the low 70s, but the still strong October sunshine will make the outdoors feel comfortable.
It's officially time for pumpkin spice!
