The Cold in Retreat...For Now...

This morning brought the coldest temps. to the Northshore since last January as lows dipped into the upper 20s with wide spread frost. That cold air is on full retreat tonight as a big surge of Gulf moisture is heading our way bringing warmer temps. and more clouds along with our 1st real rain chance in 2 weeks.  Our 1st opportunity for rain happens near dawn as a warm front lifts northward with another opportunity as a cold front sweeps thru before daybreak on Tuesday.  This front is not as cold as the last one and we'll see a quick warm up back into the 70s by Friday into next weekend.  Looking into December, much of the eastern half of the U.S. will turn very cold and stormy which should mean several significant snowstorms.  I see no signs of a Gulf storm that could bring us snow...but that could change in the weeks leading up to Christmas.  Stay tuned!
