Cool Weather in Savannah Keeps Fall Vibes Alive
Good morning, Savannah! As you step outside today, you might need a light jacket since we’re starting off with some chilly temperatures. This morning saw temperatures dip into the upper 40s for most inland areas and the lower 50s right here in Savannah.
What to Expect Today
Looking ahead, Wednesday is shaping up to be a relatively cool day, with highs only reaching the mid-60s. That’s actually about 10 to 15 degrees below the average for this time of year, making it feel more like early fall! After a cloudy start, we can look forward to some sunshine peeking through in the afternoon, brightening up our skies and spirits!
However, don’t forget your windbreaker! It’s going to be breezy today, with gusts hitting speeds of over 25 miles per hour. So, if you’re heading out, maybe secure that hat or prepare for some hair-blowing fun. The dry weather will continue into the evening, perfect for an evening stroll or dinner outdoors as the temperatures settle in the 60s.
Chilly Mornings Ahead
As we move into Thursday, grab your warmest sweatshirt because mornings are going to feel especially brisk. We may dip into the mid to upper 40s—the coldest temperatures we’ve had since March! With the wind chill, it might even feel like the 30s for some of us at daybreak. It’s definitely a reminder that fall is here!
But don’t let the chill fool you! The afternoon will warm back up to similar highs in the 60s, while plenty of sunshine will welcome you to the day. Just think of it like nature’s way of giving us that comfy autumn atmosphere!
Coastal Concerns
As we roll into Friday, there’s a noteworthy detail to share. We might see a Coastal Flood Advisory in the morning. The river levels at Fort Pulaski could reach around 9.7 feet by about 9 AM, which is near the Minor Flood Stage level but should spare us from any serious issues on US-80 for now.
Weekend Weather Looks Bright
As we head into the weekend, fear not—great weather is on the way! We’ll have dry conditions persisting right through Saturday and Sunday, with temperatures gradually climbing into the lower 70s. This means that outdoor activities are looking fantastic! Whether you’re planning a picnic or a nature hike, Saturday and Sunday will have highs in the mid to upper 70s, ideal for soaking in the beauty of our vibrant fall colors.
Looking Ahead
Next week is also looking promising, with morning lows sitting in the mid-50s as we kick off Monday, followed by highs dancing around 80 degrees. That’s almost beach weather in October!
Tropical Updates
On the tropical side of things, there’s an area of low pressure we’re keeping an eye on that’s located west of the Cabo Verde Islands. While it won’t likely develop much over the next couple of days, it could turn into a tropical depression by the end of the week. This event might affect the Leeward Islands as the weekend rolls in, but it seems it will generally stay south of us.
Additionally, another potential area of low pressure is brewing in the western Caribbean Sea. While it may end up moving west towards Central America, no local impacts are expected right now. We’ll keep you posted if anything changes!
So there you have it, Savannah! Weather that’s perfect for cozy sweaters, pumpkin spice lattes, and fun outdoor adventures awaits!
