...CHILLY AND SHOWERY WEATHER ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES WITH
LAKE-EFFECT THUNDERSTORM BANDS POSSIBLE NEAR LAKE ERIE TODAY AND
WEDNESDAY...
..LATE OCTOBER NEAR RECORD WARMTH ACROSS SOUTHERN TEXAS TODAY
MUCH OF THE UNSETTLED WEATHER THROUGH THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS WILL
REMAIN ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER STATES AS ANOTHER SYSTEM FOLLOWS
BEHIND WEAKENING LOW PRESSURE MOVING TOWARDS THE CANADIAN
MARITIMES. THE MAIN IMPACTS WITH THIS SYSTEM ARE THE
LAKE-ENHANCED/LAKE-EFFECT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WHICH ARE
EXPECTED TO BE MOST INTENSE NEAR AND DOWNWIND OF LAKE ERIE TODAY
AND WEDNESDAY. EVENTUALLY, SHOWERS SHOULD MOVE ACROSS THE
APPALACHIANS TODAY, REACHING INTO THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES AND INTO
NEW ENGLAND TONIGHT AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. THE TWIN SYSTEM WILL
LIKEWISE LIFT NORTHWARD INTO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES WEDNESDAY
NIGHT WITH MUCH OF THE RAIN OVER NEW ENGLAND TAPERED OFF BY THEN.
COLDER AND DRIER WEATHER ALONG WITH GUSTY WINDS WILL EXPAND FROM
THE MIDWEST AND OHIO VALLEY INTO THE MID-ATLANTIC ON WEDNESDAY AS
CHILLY AND SHOWERY WEATHER PERSISTS ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES INTO
THURSDAY.
ACROSS THE SOUTH, A FEW RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST THIS
AFTERNOON FOR SOUTHERN TEXAS WHERE TEMPERATURES WILL ONCE AGAIN
SOAR WELL INTO THE 90S. DUE TO BREEZY AND DRY CONDITIONS, THERE
IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS ACROSS NORTH-CENTRAL
TEXAS TODAY. ACROSS THE NORTHWEST, DRY WEATHER WILL PREVAIL BEFORE
A SERIES OF COLD FRONTS LEADS TO INCREASING PRECIPITATION COVERAGE
ALONG THE COASTLINE BEYOND WEDNESDAY. FURTHER SOUTH, SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS TIED TO A SHORTWAVE TROUGH ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE
GREAT BASIN TOMORROW, WHICH WILL BE LARGELY BENEFICIAL AS THE
REGION REMAINS UNDER DROUGHT CONDITIONS.
