Ok, that makes sense. I would also wager that average monthly low temp is captured predominantly from the last 5 days of Sept. But even that 46° is a bit surprising to me for the Triad.

No ill will my friend, but basic statistics say otherwise. The first month of the autumn, September, is still a warm month in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, with average temperature varying between 59.5°F (15.3°C) and 81.3°F (27.4°C). Temperature In Winston-Salem, the average high-temperature is practically the same as in August - a warm 81.3°F (27.4°C). The average low-temperature, in Winston-Salem, is 59.5°F (15.3°C). Or to be clear, are you saying the average historical monthly low temp is 46°?

This has to be the hottest 77° I've ever felt this morning. The humidity is unbelievably oppressive. Combine that with bright sunshine and ugh! Saturday cannot get here fast enough. Can I buy a breeze too?

In 2020 fashion, here's to hoping the word "glacier" becomes a concern for the mountains this year. Looking forward to some of that excess snow making its way to the foothills. No hoarding up there!

Hello....hello...hello.....Echo.....Echo....Echo.... Seriously, did the SE forum take August off? Fall is almost here folks! Time to spread some lime and fertilizer! Time to ready the plows Frosty! The only member I've seen in days is Burnsie and thats only because he moderated one of my posts over in the Laura thread...thanks Mr Burns. I know its the last few Dog Days, but there is so much great weather just a calendar flip away. It's almost fall.....let's do this!

Surprised there isnt a peep in here about potential impacts from Laura as it scrapes across the northern tier of the forum this weekend. But that still covers a lot of us. Van Denton last night had a graphic of 35mph winds. I can tell you with all the rain we've had recently combined with the broken, dead or rotting trees that seem to be everywhere this year, those winds will easily cause some power outages over the weekend. Looks like rainfall potential is limited to less than 2" for most.

Can somebody provide a little hope here? Anything showing a short range trend of less than 88° and 88% humidity would be acceptable. I'm headed off to research when the avg summer hi temps start dropping. I think it might be in the next couple of weeks, thank God. At least my annual "leaves off the trees" fall countdown is now down to 13 weeks. Fall will not be denied this year! Edit - August 1st hi/lo is 88/68 for the triad. Daily averages start dropping August 2nd. By August 30th the hi/lo is 83/63. Bring on September!

And a heated blanket or two. And a generator. Maybe a pellet stove or a solar solution for heat. You can survive the heat. You cant survive the cold, especially with no power and secondary heat source. You're gonna freeze your rocks off Mack!

Or.....we all realize that Mack was the curse of the SE forum and his departure brings a 10 year run of 20+ inch snowfalls and below normal temps, including 6" of snow on Christmas eve. Meanwhile in Iowa they're playing golf in January and rejoicing in the growing season being extended for 2 months. Thanks Mack!

You'll spend a lot of time up in Wisconsin. Those weekend strolls over to Madison and up to Wisconsin Dells will be amazing. Hope you like camping and fishing. Definitely an outdoor sportsmans paradise.

Welcome Bertha! May your rains be small.

Nailed it. Breaking out the cayak!

Dang, this really validated!! Snowing up in the VA and WVA hill country along the I81 and I77 corridors.

Who's reeling this one in? Oh wait, did it already go "poof"? Thats ok, I'm getting a dusting per day right now of the yellow snow.

When no one is here to see your post, its like it never even happened. You should stir the pot and start a snow thread for it.

First sunburn of the season on Belews Lake today. Stunning early spring weather!

50s and 60s starting Sunday will keep the grass growing all the way to the VA border. I already mowed once last weekend! So for most of the forum spring is springing, crickets may already be chirping and this winter is in the books. I saw snow twice and they were both low impact events. I would rate that a C+ on the type of winter I wanted to see and a solid F on what was forecasted for the triad.

Just landed at GSO. So happy to see the snowglobe as we popped out of the clouds. I dont care what radar shows, there's a lot of snow in those clouds. I saw it! Lol.

Looks like a paste job in Stuart VA. Sticking to the tree branches and flagpole. Moderate snow.

Grass going white in Stuart Va. 1500'. No thermometer on my webcams (need to fix that). But still snowing steady.

Getting real close to rippin' fatties status up in Stuart. Edit - full on snow now. I can see dimes falling on the security cams.

All snow from the first drop on the farm webcams up in Stuart Va. 1500'. Light snow now, should pick up quickly.

Sleeting hard in uptown CLT per my daughter.

I'm in TX getting ready to hop a flight back to GSO and where I was reporting steady rain for the last 36 hours straight, I can tell you the wind is RIPPING on the back side of this storm. Not looking forward to this flight as this thing is really winding up.

This thread will be loaded by midnight tonight. Lotta broken hearts across the northern tier of NC coming. I have a hunch folks down east will "see" some pretty snow that is rate driven with very little to show for it. We've all been here before.
