Autumn about to Free-Fall as October comes to a Close

A cold front that is the leading edge of polar air is pushing through Canada en route to an East Coast arrival late next week.   Projections that are this far out are hard to trust but the SOURCE of the cold being above the Arctic Circle is an indicator that Va and perhaps even Central NC faces a threat for frost near Oct 25-26.

Take a look at this Satellite Image from the University of Wisconsin SSEC.

The cold is still in the Yukon but coming this way!  The weather pattern seems to be clearly indicating that we are headed into a cold November.  This cold air is only the beginning.

I know that there is a great deal of interest in Winter.  My own projections are coming soon and I expect that there will be some excitement as Autumn chill paves the way to a classic East Coast cold Winter.
