Warm Weather Continues. Another Cooldown for the Weekend. Then Warm It Back Up

This week so far has been rather pleasant, with highs getting into the 60s to low 70s for some.  I expect this to continue for the next 3 days as we stay in this warm dome before the next cold front arrives from the west.  It still appears to not be as impressive as once thought so I will continue to keep low expectations for anything more than just your typical light showers if you do managed to be underneath such.  The mountains should be the best zone to see the precipitation.  Behind that front, however, temperatures look to take a dive into the mid-upper 50s to low 60s across the Southeast so that will make things rather cool outside with lows dropping down into the 30s, especially across the Carolinas where some areas could potentially get down to 32, which would spell more frost in the offing.  This cool down should only last for the weekend as yet another ridge will build in and allow our temperatures to warm right back to where we are now.

There's still some indication of a possible pattern change as we go through Thanksgiving week where we could be on the cold side of things as early blocking is modeled to establish itself and cause our temperatures to crash just in time for December.  Whether or not that occurs remains up in the air but certainly worth watching.  I don't imagine the Southeast getting into anything cold before Thanksgiving so anytime afterwards would be appropriate.  We'll see.

Have a good day folks.
