    2018 was the year there was an obvious sensor issue at PIT for the first 10 days of the month, so it’s tough to make any comparisons using that month. Not only was PIT 3-4 degrees warmer during the heat wave early that month, it was also 3-4 degrees warmer for the duration of the remnants of Gordon when there was no insolation, etc. to produce any variation.

    PIT has to be running high. 67 at PIT, 64 at AGC right now.

    This morning’s low of 60 is our 9th low of 60+ this month, making this the 9th consecutive September with at least 9 lows of 60+. Prior to this stretch, we’d never done that more than 5 years in a row at the airport, and never at any observing site in the period of record outside of an extremely suspect stretch from 1889-1913 where every September had double digit days with lows of 60+.

    People with too much time on their hands probably should use it for good instead of silly little side quests like disproving climate change by setting up a weather station in such a way that the data is clearly manipulated.

    It’s almost like you can’t splice a couple decades of your own PWS records into an official threaded record at a different location dating back to 1894 (unless you live on the property where the old records were kept) and not get laughed at.

    Lol

    PIT is over an inch. About 3/4” of which fell in 8 minutes.
  8. TimB
    Lol

    Another 90. First heat wave by definition since 2020. Also the 4th heat wave at least partially in September since 2010. Prior to that we hadn’t had one in September since 1973.

    91 again so far. 4th time since 2011 that we’ve done 91 back to back in September. Prior to 2011 it hadn’t happened for 28 years.

    Is it possible to look at this thing and not already feel defeated, like December is already lost yet again?
  12. TimB
    Lol

    Fourth year out of the last 7 when the warmest temp of the season occurred in September (including ties). Two of the other three had their max in June. So only one out of the last 7 years (2020) had a max that occurred solely in July or August.
  14. TimB
    Lol

    I mean yeah, it’s a disaster. Even with the new warmer normals we’re still above them some 8 or 9 months every year.
  16. TimB
    August is going to clock in just slightly above normal here, with highs just a tenth or two below normal but lows a degree or so above.
  17. TimB
    Doing better than I am. Low for August at PIT was 52. The 9th straight year we haven’t gotten to 50 or lower in August, easily a record if you set the threshold at 51. There’s a 12 year stretch with no 40s from 1892-1903 but there were a couple years in that stretch that dropped to 50.

    You’ve been venturing into OT too much lately, lol. I didn’t read @Bubbler86’s post as an intent to cause disagreement or strife.

    Sometimes the second half. I think the 91 on 9/27/17 was the highest temperature of that summer, maybe tied with a day in the first half of June.

    As we head towards next week, here’s what we’re working with as far as hottest September days on record at KPIT (I excluded the obvious bullcrap records from before the KPIT era): Would think we could find our way onto this list multiple times, with mid 90s not out of the question.
  21. TimB
    @TheClimateChangeris there a way to do an analysis on how much September average dewpoints have risen in, say, 2013-2022 vs. 1990-1999? Anecdotally it seems it’d be at least 5 degrees but that could be a memory hole.
  22. TimB
    You win.
  23. TimB
    Maybe someone did. Wasn’t the NWS.
  24. TimB
    Night, mostly after midnight, so Thursday sounds about right.
  25. TimB
    89 again. Warmest day in August thus far.
