The front that slid through yesterday, bringing the 3-ish inch deluges to Louisa, stalled in NC overnight but is working it's way back north today; we are now in the warm, muggy air, again, and there's not much breeze to help. The sunshine that is flirting with the clouds right now is the potential danger today: excess heat leading to instability in the atmosphere and increasing the chance for severe weather. We are in the slight risk zone today for high winds, hail and less so but still possible, tornadoes. Pay attention!!
The stronger front, cold, working its way from the Mississippi toward the east coast and stirring up severe weather as it goes, will sweep this muggy air out of here late tomorrow with another slight risk for wildness before leaving cool, dry air in its wake for the late week. Hang on 'til Thursday and you will get a taste of the approaching Fall.
The quake list today is pretty average looking, Ring of Fire with some 4's and a couple of low 5's. Some mid 4 shakes in south central Africa and northern Italy are outliers. Only 1 little quake in Hawaii so Kilauea is still in a calm mode. The next updated volcano list will come out late tomorrow.
The moon will be between Saturn and Mars tonight, if the clouds allow a view (it will still be between the two planets whether we can see it or not). The now quite gibbous moon will wash out the fainter stars and the Milky Way as this week progresses but the trade off is a world illuminated by moonlight, also lovely. Get out, expect to sweat and deal with bugs but check out your planet, today on Earth.
