With the month averaging over 11(!!!) degrees above normal thus far, we’re heading for a correction this week as some sizable weather systems affect us and steer us closer to normal.

Certainly the breakneck pace of the warmth had to come to and end, right? Well, for now it’s a setback for the warm weather. I still hold to my belief that the pattern hasn’t changed markedly and may revert back to the same-ol, same-ol later this month. Stay tuned for that.

Monday looks like the prize winner of the week. Our temperatures recover from the near freezing in the morning to near 60 by afternoon. This still amazes me…with such little daylight, the turnaround is astounding for this time of year. Typically we see this temperature see saw in spring…with much longer days. Go figure.

Storm number 1 comes on Tuesday with a band of rain sweeping along up from the south. There will be an area of low pressure offshore, so this could quantify as a coastal storm system, but I’m not labeling it a nor’easter. Oddly enough, some of the weather maps are pulling the heaviest rain offshore and only giving us a glancing shot at some showers Tuesday. But make no mistake, the breezes will be cold and raw all day long. It will feel every bit of November on that particular day.

November is typically the cloudiest month of the entire year…and this week may bear that out. Not much of a break Wednesday before the showers come in again Thursday. 

Make it a good workweek.
