Kocet's Corner

The latest tropical development will have no direct impact on the weather alongthe Eastern Seaboard. That is a good thing given all the rain that has justfallen. Since the later days of September, much of the mid-Atlantic and NewEngland has become waterlogged, and another big storm would create a very badflood situation.This is not going to happen, though. The rainstorm that has been around for solong will be pulling away Thursday, and like I said, the disturbance currentlyin the tropics is no threat to us.

I should add that the dry air mass coming in behind the departing storm isgoing to provide the Ohio Valley region and mid-Atlantic States with some verynice weather beginning Thursday.
