DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 240 AM EDT SAT OCT 3 2026
MUCH COOLER THIS MORNING WITH CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT NORTHERLY
WINDS ALLOWING FOR IDEAL RADIATIONAL COOLING. DEW POINTS IN THE
LOW TO MID 40S ACROSS THE AREA WILL KEEP LOWS CLOSE TO THESE
VALUES. SOME PATCHY MIST/FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE BUT SHOULD REMAIN
NEAR SURFACE AND THE LIGHT WINDS WILL HELP TO MIX DRIER AIR
KEEPING ANY MIST/FOG VERY LOCALIZED.
HIGHS TODAY WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES WILL AGAIN BE IN THE MID
60S. LOWS TONIGHT WILL RUN A DEGREE OR TWO COOLER WITH SLIGHTLY
DRIER AIR IN PLACE, HOWEVER A WEAK TROUGH MOVING EASTWARD INTO
THE REGION WILL ALLOW FOR INCREASED WAA AHEAD OF THE UPPER LEVEL
TROUGHING AND HIGHS ON SUNDAY WILL BE WARMER WITH HIGHS SLIGHTLY
WARMER GETTING INTO THE LOWER 70S ACROSS THE AREA. IN THE WAKE
OF THE WEAK DISTURBANCE A NORTHWESTERLY TO ZONAL FLOW WILL
RETURN ACROSS THE REGION WITH SYNOPTIC COOLING RETURNING, LOWS
MONDAY MORNING BACK INTO THE LOW TO MID 40S AND HIGHS ON MONDAY
ONLY IN THE LOW TO MID 60S. THIS PATTERN ALSO BRINGS A SHOT OF
DRIER AIRMASS INTO THE REGION AND WILL BRING A CRISP MORNING ON
TUESDAY WITH LOWS IN THE MID TO UPPER 30S, BRRRRRRR. SHOULD MAKE
FOR GOOD SLEEPING WEATHER, MAY ALSO WANT TO PLAN ON PROTECTING
ANY VERY TEMPERATURE SENSITIVE PLANTS/ANIMALS OUT OF AN
ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION. STILL THINKING THAT SOME ISOLATED FROST
ON MORE ELEVATED SURFACES WILL BE POSSIBLE BUT WITH STILL VERY
MOIST AND WARM SOILS SHOULD KEEP ANY FROST DEVELOPMENT AT BAY.
WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP AN EYE ON THIS SITUATION. WITH A MORE
NORTHWESTERLY FLOW INTO THE LATER PART OF THE WEEK AND SLIGHTLY
HIGHER SYNOPTIC HEIGHTS ARRIVING DRY CONDITIONS LOOK TO CONTINUE
WITH SLIGHT WARMING INTO THE END OF THE WEEK WHEN HIGHS
WEDNESDAY AND ONWARD INTO THE 70S.
