Last month was N to a little AN for most stations with the exception of the immediate Long Island Sound stations like BDR and LGA. All the other months back to March were also some degree of AN. With such extensive ridging and record CONUS warmth, there wasn’t much cooler air around. So the few cooler spots last month like LGA and BDR had to rely on lower daytime highs rather than cooler minimums. May managed to finish a little above even with the cooler conditions just to our West. The record warm day where parts of the area reached 100° for the first time in May put that month over the top. So the theme has been back and forth with the warmer departures being more impressive than the cooler ones. October looks like a continuation of the same theme. Very warm start to the month with a cool down this week. But we warm right back up into the 70s again. Whether we reach 80° again by mid-October will be contingent on sky conditions, wind direction, and how far north the moisture near the Gulf gets.

Drizzled/Misted all day and picked up .12. Finally was able to get in 2 baseball games.

Don't forget about 2002-03 to 2004-05. That was an epic 3-year stretch. Also, after 2009-10 and 2010-11, you had (after 2 lean years) 2013-14 and 2014-15 to complete the Big 4.

Yeah, the right call was to go for it. What was wrong was the play call. The Eagles had total control of the game up until that point.

Get on it.

In 2022 the Vikings had a great record and a terrible point differential. That was the most obvious paper tiger in recent memory (they lost to Daniel Jones in the WC game). The 2026 Vikings have the 5th best point differential right now and the starting QB has been in the system two weeks (mostly without Jefferson). The D and ST are elite, but I have simply no idea whether the O can find a way this season. It is ugly so far.

I buck the tree into rounds and load onto my ATV trailer. Works out well . I bring it right to the splitter. Certainly not high volume but with my small ATV I can get almost anywhere.

Check out the record high for today.

There was definitely some OE for sure.

Up to 10/50% as of 1AM CDT advisory: Tropical Weather Outlook NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 200 AM EDT Mon Oct 5 2026 For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America: 1.

Great running weather so can't complain there!

9:30am game what? snooze fest

Agree 100%. Now will they be T, ST, or ET legs? I think T legs most likely and ET least likely. Speaking of T legs: 0Z UKMET: 5th run in a row with a Gulf TC with it maxing at a mid level TS and land falling over tip of SE LA followed by MS/AL border on Saturday with plentiful rains and even some areas of flooding rains over the SE US over weekend with heaviest Gulf coast: NEW TROPICAL CYCLONE FORECAST TO DEVELOP AFTER 84 HOURS FORECAST POSITION AT T+ 84 : 23.2N 91.7W LEAD CENTRAL MAXIMUM WIND VERIFYING TIME TIME POSITION PRESSURE (MB) SPEED (KNOTS) -------------- ---- -------- ------------- ------------- 1200UTC 08.10.2026 84 23.2N 91.7W 1004 28 0000UTC 09.10.2026 96 22.8N 91.3W 1003 26 1200UTC 09.10.2026 108 25.3N 90.3W 1003 35 0000UTC 10.10.2026 120 26.4N 90.7W 1000 38 1200UTC 10.10.2026 132 29.0N 89.5W 998 45 0000UTC 11.10.2026 144 33.4N 88.1W 992 27 1200UTC 11.10.2026 156 35.4N 87.9W 1002 18 0000UTC 12.10.2026 168 CEASED TRACKING

Sunday had a rainy late afternoon and evening, but it was very light. It’s still raining. Total measured only ~0.1”, which gets me to a MTD of ~2.2”.

I don’t want to wade into the Canadian vs. USA maple syrup debate, but isn’t this week similar to a 6.9/7 for production (or reduction, as its Fall) ?
