To explain why weve been so warm at the end of september and the beginning of fall and its all got to do with High Pressure thats domed over our area. I can describe High Pressure as kind of a bubble that sits in place over us and doesnt let anything in. So were not talking a cold front that could usher in rain and cooler air. Nothing like that getting in. We stay warm and in fact sometimes it almost boils the atmosphere so the temperature starts to rise, so thats what weve been seeing. Its why yesterday we made it to the 90s. Now, we are going to see that bubble burst, but not today. Were talking record temperatures, very close for today. 92 is the record in philadelphia. Were forecasting a high of 89. Now, that does not mean that while, officially we only hit 89 some spots could hit the low 90s in our philadelphia neighborhoods. We see this. The spread is usually a couple of degrees around philly. So we are looking at very warm conditions. Allentown, the record is 92. 89, the forecast high, as well. Look at areas like trenton. Yesterday, hit the record. Today, just short at 89 degrees. So its going to be a close call for many locations. Now, this is not going to be the case for the next few days. Well start to see a gradual cooldown as clouds increase ahead of Hurricane Maria. 84 tuesday, wednesday, in philly. By thursday, down to sl81 degrees. Wildwood some spotty showers are possible and same for delaware, more isolated showers possible thanks to some of that moisture moving in from maria. Lets talk about the cloud coverage. Heres our hourbyhour model as we go through the rest of our monday. A few spot clouds rolling in. I do not think any rain is going to make it to the ground. As we go into tuesday, washes right over us the cloud th daytime hours and we could see a sprinkle pick up along that southern edge of our viewing area, particularly southern delaware. As we go into wednesday, still cloudy conditions. Look at this this is about lunch lunchtime. Some spot showers down along the southern edge as well of our viewing zone. Some coastal impacts doing to be felt due to maria, but really too far for many of us to feel much other than the cooldown and the cloud coverage. This is the look at Hurricane Maria. Lets see if we can get it to pop back through. Looks like it had a little issue. For 80mileperhour winds right now, the reading shows its still a category 1 hurricane, although more on the low end. Its moving to the north at about 7 00 miles per hour. And you can see its parallel to right now parts of georgia. Its going to run to the north here, as we go through your tuesday and your wednesday and start to hook thursday into friday to the right, which means it stays away from us. Its closest call will be near the outer banks of north korea. That is going to bring some rough surf and that high rip current risk as well as some windy conditions to the shore. But, the reason we stay out of the clear here is this. Were going to have big, cool air dip as we go into the late part of the week. And into your weekend. So temperatures are going to drop down. And it also means that were looking at more refreshing air rolling in bringing fall into the forecast crisp and cool mornings, low humidity. Well talk about this coming up in the next half hour.
