WHAT'S NEW: A weak cold front is on the way, to pass over Long Island on Wednesday, but it'll just bring around a slightly more cooler air mass, as our temps go down a few degrees for Thursday and Friday.
WHAT'S NEXT: All eyes will be on IAN and where that system will go next after landfall. We could see some of that tropical moisture come up this way by Sunday, and hang around for a few days, bringing some much needed rain.
TROPICS:
Ian is a major hurricane, roughly 200 miles away from the southwest coast of Florida. Alerts are up for much of Florida and up the coast into the Carolinas. Landfall is likely sometime Wednesday afternoon, between Tampa and Fort Myers, as a category 4 (winds 130+ MPH)
There is other other disturbance we are watching in the ocean, that has a modest (60%) chance of development in the next 5 days, and is located in the Central Atlantic.
