It looks like we will end August -2 or thereabouts. Seems like summers these days are one month of heat, then on to fall. I was so tempted to leave out the emoji and get the AWATT crowd all pissed off...

The tree growth issue at Central Park over the ASOS has become even more pronounced during the 2020s. Notice how many rural sites like the Charlotteburg Reservior and Baiting Hollow now have more 90° days. I tried to find an approximate analog from the 1940s for 90 days when there wasn’t a tree growth issue in NYC. Back then there weren’t the tall trees covering the site. Also notice how the other sites closer to NYC in more urban settings had a similar number of 90° days this year so far and in 1949. So based on the relationship of 90° days between 1949 and 2025 using LGA and EWR, NYC probably had 27-29 days reaching 90° instead of the reported 14 days value in 2025.

If I had to pick out the things in the PAC that are different from last year at this time besides the obvious (-IOD, earlier developing La Niña, -PMM, -AAM), it would be the total lack of a parade of recurving tropical cyclones and extratropical systems coming off the coast, upwelling and cooling the marine heatwave around Japan like we had last year.

Top Tier weather that looks to continue for the next 7-10 days, it’s incredibly dry though. A welcome change of pace with these temperatures as the last several years the 90s seemed to have lingered well into September. Gotta be the coolest start to September since what? 2013-2014?

48 here this am. Need rain though. Maybe late week we get lucky.

We will end August as one of our driest last full months of summer in our climate history. We will also finish with our 4th below normal temperature month across the first 8 months of 2025. Our beautiful weather will continue through the holiday weekend and well into the new work week. We may finally see some beneficial rains by Thursday night into Friday. Thursday looks to be the warmest day of the week with some spots possibly exceeding 80 degrees. We will get cooler again by next weekend.

Maybe a little bit, but it still looks BN for the first half of the month.

Per Joe Bastardi yesterday in the free video, this is and will likely end up being the quietest Labor Day weekend for the globe as a whole tropically (not Atlantic specifically as 2024, for one, was equally quiet) of most of our lifetimes. There was just an Invest in the EPAC and the remnants of a TD in SE Asia. That was it, which is fascinating!

Yep

Quickly to 74 / 47

Maybe, either way I dont really care and ill just enjoy the nice weather. We are making up for the rainy weekends from what, late March through June i think.

Wet weather Friday ??

Gorgeous temps this morning driving in. A/C off, windows down!

46F for the low. Just a perfect evening/night. Unreal for August.

Euro and AI are a torch toward mid month…EPS is AN, but a lot more tempered. GFS/GEFS continue the chamber weather. Either way, precip looks BN.

With meteorological summer coming to an end, it is now time to start a discussion for fall.

I bet even with the warmer planet these cool lows would have happened more often if it wasn't for the warmer planet jacking up dews in summer in our part of the world.

Pleasant for days

47.1 F for the low. Spectacular morning for a labor day weekend.

52 this morning.

NWS Duluth seems to have latched onto the idea of first flakes.
