It looks like next week will be another one of those "heavy rain threats". I actually hope it fails. My business has a packed schedule and it all needs to get done by Dec 1.

57 upon leaving the house. Some humidity returns for a couple days but all in all not bad. Not much rain to be had.

I did my aerate and overseed on Labor Day weekend. dropped the seed last Monday and patches on Tuesday. already have sprouts about an inch tall.

A powerful 6000+ meter 500 mb ridge over the region will keep conditions hot and humid with no meaningful rain potential. BNA reached a record-setting 100 degrees Tuesday and there is no reason to doubt it will happen again Wednesday as the ridge intensifies directly overhead. Record high temperatures are in jeopardy each day this week.

NYC was one of the coolest spots in the city at 57° as most other stations didn’t drop below 60°.

And that gave us the Halloween snowstorm of 2011 and probably one of the worst winters we've ever had. 2011 - 2012 was a disaster. We had more snow in October than we had in NDJFM.

Superstorm 93 was epic on so many levels. The certainty almost a week out. It had been a decade since I had seen March snow that didn't just accumulate on grassy surfaces. The sunny but cold calm quiet day before and the craziness at the gas stations and supermarkets. I was 19 and worked for Stop and Shop at the time. It was the first time I had een more than a foot of snow since the Feb 83 storm.

Yup I remember the cold too like it was yesterday. I think there were afternoons that struggled to hit 10 above but with 15 to 25 mph northerly winds and who can forget the sleet fest in Jan 93 I think where it was just below 10 degrees with 2 to 3 inches of pure sleet...wild stuff

I think the latest date ever recorded for the formation of a hurricane since maritime shipping logs occurred in 1941. That date is September 17th. That record is toast.
