Looking at the Labor Day weekend

Looking ahead week to the Labor Day weekend, it appears that we may have have a mixed bag of weather. It's early yet, but there is a possibility that we will have to deal with the remnants of what will become Hurricane Isaac. The forecast models show a blocking ridge in the southeast and thus the storm center will likely head up the Mississippi River and then angle across the lower Great Lakes. (see map)

Again,  it's too early to tell for sure what will happen, but if this scenario works out, we can expect Saturday to be an OK day with clouds increasing Saturday night. Sunday could be breezy with showers as the remnants move through.  Monday is still is a question.  Obviously, we will know more once Isaac makes landfall.
