Now THAT'S a strong cold front:

I think it's pretty safe to say that we won't see a Hurricane Kate (1985) this Thanksgiving...

Of course, never say never...

That sure is Frank. I wonder if we will see any severe (tornadoes) ahead of it? In 1992 right around Nov 21 a F-4 monster hit a few miles from where I lived in Brandon MS. Killed several people......MGC

Hi MGC,

Now it's not as pronounced (it moved from Day 10 to Day 4 - in just 24 hours!):

yes, November tornadoes sometimes seem to be the strongest of the entire season - perhaps because of the dynamics per very strong cold fronts at this time of year...

Interesting that the isobars are clustered so close to each other on day of
frontal passage- strong winds behind front and turning very cold by next week.

Yep. Pretty much know season over when we start talking about fronts. Now there talking Artic by next week. I guess the next post should be in the winter forum. See you all June 2009.....
MIAMI:
Windy and much cooler weather is expected on
Sunday...with modest cold advection preventing a large diurnal
temperature increase. GFS advertises a gradual modification in
temperature through Wednesday...with very low chances for showers
along the Atlantic coast. However...the 12/00z European model (ecmwf) suggests a
much colder airmass of Arctic origins may have the potential to
affect the area by mid-week.
