For today, we will have a lot of sunny with breezy conditions. The high will be in the lower 70’s. Hurricane Noel will produce gusty winds along the coast with high surf and rough seas. A gale warring is in effect for today. For tonight, it will be a great night for football games; with clear skies lows will be 46-50. Saturday and Sunday we’ll have sunny blue skies with highs 72-74. I don’t see much in the way of rain anytime soon. The first of next week will be warm, but a strong cold front will pass through late Monday, the front will bring the coldest air of the season by Wednesday. Have a good Weekend!!
Tropics:
Hurricane Noel:
Noel is a hurricane this morning, but will become an extra-tropical storm by tonight/Saturday. Noel will bring strong winds to the New England coast by late tonight and Saturday. As Noel lifts northeast today it will run into cooler water temperatures and strong upper level winds. Since Noel will become extra-tropical, a much lager area will be affected by strong winds. In a hurricane the strongest winds are around the center (eye) of the storm, but for an extra-tropical low the winds are spread out much further away from the center. That is why there will be a much larger area affected by Noel. That was a little Meteorology 101 for you today.
