Such a great game last night. I couldn't move out of my seat! Nice day incoming here!

Nice stats Don. Thanks. Last October was brutally dry, remember that well.

Probably about 41 N.

Is this really true?

Taking a break from all the warm and dry chatter for a moment it sure is nice out there this morning. Great sleeping weather with the windows open and the blankets up. Nice breeze with a bit of a "wind chill" going on. Nice! Overnight low here was 48. Walpack, NJ was lowest I saw with an overnight low of 36, that was a notable exception. Most NNJ cold spots were in the l/m 40's. We now return you to our regularly scheduled program.

First week of October looks very dry. A frontal passage might bring some rain early in the second week of the month, but a lot can still change by that time.

Will be some 90 degree readings

I live for these imaginary storm warnings.

Yeah fair enough. Looks like early next week is probably the last of the true 80s.

Well, that is a flip from 86F...not saying it's gonna snow lol

Interesting! Our lows are a bit more elevated due to lots of overcast nights, though we still drop below zero several days annually.

That was all I commented on...I don't think the series is over or anything.

I think out west and into the Plains may see some decent shots. Maybe some spills east.

September 2025 in Phoenix marked the fourth consecutive year with a monthly mean temperature at or above 90°, a milestone never before observed in Phoenix's historical climate record which goes back to 1895. This persistent late-summer heat is consistent with the broader impacts of climate change, which is driving rising temperatures, more frequent and intense heatwaves, and shifts in seasonal patterns across the Southwest. Although internal variability influences any single month's weather, the sustained nature of recent September heat underscores a long-term warming trend fueled by anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. September also saw an hourly rainfall record set on September 26th. During a severe thunderstorm with large hail and gusts of 56 mph, Phoenix received an hourly rainfall amount of 1.09". Even as the Southwest is undergoing aridification, an increasingly intense hydrological cycle driven by ongoing warming can produce intense rainfall amounts.

I think my sentiment was deserved...you have ripped Chapman from the day they signed him...going on about how he always melts when the lights get bright. Sorry, dude...he shoved it right up your tailpipe when the lights were brightest, and it should go without mention?? BS-

Some signs of a flip in the latter third or so of this month.

All models were wrong at one point. Most had them either hitting the coast and moving inland or stalling right at the coast.

Breath of fresh air outside this morning, quite literally.

Not looking like much of anything here rain wise for a week or more.

New month, new obs. Welcome to Autumn.

Sunday has a very warm look for the interior...could def see some 85-86F in the typical hot spots. Looks quite warm for the foreseeable future too as a whole (outside of the brief, cool shot) with some big daily departures.

Min of 32F and decent frost in the valley. Car was frozen. Instant classic baseball game last night. It’s the only thing people are talking about this morning.

First time since 1982 that New Brunswick had a colder monthly minimum temperature in August than September.

Man, check out MEX machine numbers. They're over +15 ..approaching +20 at a D5 range. It's getting easier to do that now that we're into October ( +15 on July 20th is about 108 F haha), but still... MEX is weighted by climatology the farther out in time. By any D5, there's a significant amount of negative weight there - unless they've changed that product derivative/philosophy... But these numbers in the 00z run are up into the low to mid 80s from BDL to ASH on Sunday. Upper 70s to low 80s beginning Saturday thru mid next week, otherwise. The subtext to this being ... if removing the climate weighting, what's the "real" potential here. I gotta figure it's not a lot higher though - not sure the sun is up to the task this late in the year. What's the ceiling? This reminds me of the November balm that took place in 2020, when for 4 or so days there were 50 F lows followed by 80+F highs. I figure for that + maybe 4 to 6 degrees?

Maybe I’ll hit 42 tonight
