FORECAST
Good morning! And what a morning it is. Roll down the windows and soak it in. After yesterday high of 99°, we’ve earned this morning’s cooler weather. Most of us are in the 60s thanks to low humidity. Once the sun comes up, temperatures will rise quickly. Highs this afternoon will be around 90. Still warm, but better.
This kind of pattern will continue through early next week. Expect sunny afternoons and clear skies overnight, with continued low humidity.
In the Gulf, Hurricane Helene is gaining strength and is forecast to become a major hurricane later today. Landfall occurs later tonight just south of Tallahassee, Florida, with significant storm surge, heavy rainfall, and powerful winds. The National Hurricane Center is calling the impacts potentially ‘catastrophic’. We’ll have more updates throughout the day, as Helene nears the coast.
Have a great day!
