Low humidity and pleasantly warm air will be here Friday and Saturday before it turns muggy and a bit unsettled.

The slide into Autumn is never a straight line with the path towards cold and snowy weather often taking a circuitous route accompanied with sharp rises and steep falls but the long-term trend is of course always downward.

The air mass in place is cool and dry and feels more typical of the final days of September. 

Again this morning, some areas are experiencing thick fog and low clouds.  As was the case Tuesday this will need to dissipate before the sun takes over, but it will and temperatures will also respond.

This will be the warmest day of this stretch and likely the warmest we’ll experience until next spring and summer. 

Thanks to Harvey, Irma and Maria there’s been a lot of damage from tropical systems this year.

A high surf advisory continues for the coast, and you can expect scattered showers over the area throughout the day.

Jose could bring high seas and a couple days of rain to coastal Maine.
