Long-Range Forecast – October 22
A mainly dry pattern will continue through the middle of next week. The best chance of a few showers between now and then is 6am-12pm on Sunday, but it does not look like a soaking rain. It will be seasonable Monday through Wednesday.
A cold front moving through the northern states will scoop up some tropical moisture and bring rain sometime between next Wednesday night and early Friday morning. At this point, it looks like a good bet for at least a half-inch of much-needed rain. Upwards of an inch is not out of the question.
The early outlook for Halloween is for dry and not too cold conditions. The weather pattern, however, will likely be getting more active in early November. Rain is possible late next weekend or early the following week.
Overall, there is no very cold weather in the forecast for the next couple of weeks. Just a couple of cool shots after fronts pass early Friday into Saturday, early next week, and late next workweek.
