something wicked this way comes

An unusual storm is coming up from the south this weekend.  In the winter we have nor'easters.  I've heard this described as a sou'easter. 


 From the Washington Post....

  It could be a tough weekend for beachgoers along the East Coast. A bizarre storm system with potentially subtropical characteristics looks to trek up the East Coast, bringing with it the potential of heavy rain, windy conditions, and perhaps some localized flooding from the eastern Carolinas to coastal New England.

Ah, that explains why it is pleasantly warm instead of insanely scorching here in the Piedmont today. Good luck to you flatlanders and marsh--dwellers! Have a nice weekend (even if it's soggy)

Very wet yesterday. Humid and breezy today. Hoping for sailing weather soon.
