It's going to feel as though we completely skipped Spring and went directly into Summer with temperatures getting around the 80-degree mark, possibly breaking that in spots for the Southeast. Great time for getting ice cream or just relaxing outside. Plenty of sun should be the main event for today's weather. Saturday will be similar but not as warm with mid to upper 70s for highs with clouds moving in for the later part of the day, as I expect showers to come through for Saturday night and a part of Sunday. By then, our temperatures will crash into the 50s so a wet and cool-ish sort of day is coming up at the end of the weekend before we jump right back into the warm stuff for a few days. A cold front passes by later next week and could have a bigger push of cooler air behind it thanks to the NAO dropping into the negative category, which will allow that air to reach us here in the Southeast (especially for the Carolinas and Tennessee). A late freeze is possible during the time that the air sticks around so if you haven't already done so (gardeners), don't plant just yet until we get into a pattern that keeps things warm during the day and cool at night.
Speaking of the upcoming weekend, the supermoon event will be taking place around moon rise and last for one hour according to NASA. The moon will be 14% larger and 30% brighter than a normal full moon and is best seen during the hour that is rising since that will be the point where it is closest to the Earth (perigee). Be sure to get a good view when you can! It will be quite a spectacular thing to see indeed. Enjoy the day everyone.
