Concerns for this week, Severe Outbreak and Cold

Sorry for the delay in getting the next entry.

A couple of areas of concern for this week:

1. Severe thunderstorm and tornado outbreak:  A strong cold front is expected to strengthen as it digs SE during the week.  Here in the southeast the biggest threat will be from southern VA through SC,  Right now it appears that the front passes through late Thursday.
2. Weekend Cold:  More a nuisance than a problem.  As the trough digs into the east a substantial cold pool of air is expected to develop.  This will lead to substantially lower than normal temperatures and probably an unstable atmosphere.
