Don S. in the main September thread is also downplaying this event and I agree with him especially for areas west of Long Island - Long Island and southern New England remain the regions where heavy flooding rains are more likely. Along the coast down to the Delmarva -coastal flooding -beach erosion and high winds are the main concern. Upton and Mt. Holly are doing the right thing by down playing it at this time also IMO.

one day we'll get a perfectly timed w/cold shot, nice bombing tucked low, that goes bananas and dumps 30" at DCA and BWI. Until that day... I will enjoy these seasonable temps - cool morning out there. Nearly 3" IMBY over the last 7 days which has things feeling crisp and green.

Early start to winter blues. Always the negative part of the colder months. Lots of cloudy, overcast wx. For it to start in Sept is a real bummer.

We tried to tell them

September 24 1985: 0.4 inches of snow falls in the Minneapolis area. 1982: Tropical air moves north into Minnesota. The Twin Cities have a low of 71. 1869: Heavy rain dumps nearly 10 inches on the White Earth Reservation. For Thursday, September 24, 2026 1926 - The temperature at Yellowstone Park dipped to nine degrees below zero. It was the coldest reading of record in the U.S. during September. Severe freezes were widespread over the northwestern U.S. causing great crop destruction. In Washington State, Spokane County experienced their earliest snow of record. Harney Branch Experiment Station in Oregon reported a temperature of 2 degrees above zero to establish a state record for the month of September. (David Ludlum) (The Weather Channel) 1950 - A smoke pall from western Canada forest fires covered much of the eastern U.S. Daylight was reduced to nighttime darkness in parts of the Northeast. The color of the sun varied from pink to purple, blue, or lavendar. Yellow to grey-tan was common. (24th-30th) (The Weather Channel) 1972 - Lightning struck a man near Waldport, OR, a young man who it so happens was carrying thirty-five pieces of dynamite. (The Weather Channel)(Note: DAMN! What a bad day ) 1987 - The first full day of autumn proved to be a pleasant one for much of the nation, with sunny skies and mild temperatures. Thunderstorms again formed over Florida and the southwestern deserts, and also formed along a cold front in the northeastern U.S. A storm spotter at Earp CA sighted a couple of funnel clouds, one on the California side of the state line, and the other on the Arizona side. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1988 - Thunderstorms developing along a stationary front produced large hail and damaging winds in the southeastern U.S., with reports of severe weather most numerous in North Carolina. Golf ball size hail was reported at Tick Creek and a number of other locations in North Carolina. (National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1989 - Forty-seven cities between the Rockies and the Appalachians reported record low temperatures for the date. Lows of 38 degrees at Abilene TX, 34 degrees at Jackson KY, and 36 degrees at Midland TX established records for the month of September. The low of 36 degrees at Midland smashed their previous record for the date by thirteen degrees. Fayetteville AR and Springfield MO reported their earliest freeze of record. Thunderstorms produced torrential rains in northeastern Florida. Jacksonville was deluged with 11.40 inches of rain, and flash flooding resulted in two deaths. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 2005 - Early in the morning, major Hurricane Rita came ashore near the Texas/Louisiana border.

I was going thatch and resseed yard and said nope not with all the leaves about to fall. Great day to wash the house off for the season

4 degree drop since coming into work. Sitting at 49 degrees in Kearny.

Lets tear down some forest!

Will be interesting to see where the heaviest banding sets up as the GFS and RGEM are going 10”+ but in different areas.

Utpon will have alot of changes today unless models back off...

6z ai Euro looks good for you guys to get a relatively high impact nor easter, I feel like it's been a while since NYC had one.

Someone get @Blizzard of 93 on the phone!

Low of 44 with .02" of heavy dew in the bucket that is not to be confused with rain. Happy pre-Friday!

That is a heck of a mlvl warm front that will be draped within the region with PWAT values > 1.50". The rain is going to be nuts. There is bound to be significant flooding somewhere. Some areas could probably get 6-10"+ but really need to wait and narrow down the mesoscale details better

Spoke too early, a rain shower developed and dropped temps. Currently at 57.7 so first 50’s of the season at my location!

Low was 48.9 degrees. Currently 49.0/48.2 with light drizzle and a bit of fog, delightful!

do vertical cross sections not work on TT anymore? EDIT: working, had to refresh the page several times

Like dongs ?

6z euro op is real nasty here. 6z AI about the same as 00z. Euro op continues to flop around.

46 got back late last night from vacation...nothing died so that's good

It has been incredibly cloudy over the last two weeks. Des Moines has had its cloudiest September since 1986. Yesterday was expected to be our only sunny day of the week, but it was mostly cloudy again. The next week also looks very cloudy as we get a stream of moisture from the sw US.

Yep gfs shows alot of rain now for the coast.

No shit ...
