HURRICANE MATTHEW BACK TO A CATEGORY 4, BEAUTIFUL NYC WEATHER
HURRICANE MATTHEW BACK TO A CATEGORY 4, BEAUTIFUL NYC WEATHER
Hurricane Matthew has been upgraded back to a category 4 storm. Sustained winds are a whopping 140 mph with gusts as high as 165. The Bahamas are currently being ravaged with winds well over 100 mph, heavy rainfall of up to 15 inches, and a storm surge of 10 to 15 feet. Similar effects will be felt along the Florida coastline. If you have any loved ones along the Florida Atlantic coast, they need to evacuate immediately.
The latest NHC track calls for Hurricane Matthew to remain a category 4 as it hugs the Florida coast, before slowing down, gradually weakening, and then making a clockwise hook. This will be due to a blocking high to the north, and also some interaction with Tropical Storm Nicole. There is a chance that the storm could complete a full loop next week, which could bring it back across the Bahamas and/or southern Florida. While certainly not a good situation for those locations, the storm would at least be in a significantly weakened state at that point.
Back here at home, gorgeous weather is expected over the next few days for NYC. Skies will be mainly sunny, with temperatures in the low to mid 70s – above average for this time of year. The next chance of rain will be on Saturday as a cold front moves through. There is a chance for some heavier rain, as the cold front may pull some added moisture from Hurricane Matthew. Skies will then clear on Sunday, with dry and cooler weather into next week.
