And so it begins. 12z GFS backs off on the cold front next weekend, and it's even pumping another 588+ dm ridge by the end of its run. 850mb temps never get below 12*C here.
-
EURO's already starting to show signs of cancelling next weekend's cold front.
-
Get used to it. It's going to be a hot weekend.
-
The record high of 91*F today at ATL was in fact tied.
-
ATL also hit 90*F yesterday. The first time since 1954. Record high today is 91*F (also set back in 1954), which could be in jeopardy.
-
Was there ever a chance?
-
The grid officially calls for 90'*F here on Friday, and 88*F on Thursday and Saturday.
-
FWIW, the humidity has dropped off a bit. Dewpoints are now in the low 60s, lol.
-
What were the winters of 1921-1922 and 1925-1926 like? They seem to be the common denominators with all of these records being broken.
-
Looks like 69*F will do it for the minimum low this month at ATL. Crazy! And we could even make a run at 90*F by the middle of this upcoming week.
-
So scratch that. The high was actually 88*F. Record high was 92*F, set back in 1941.
-
The high so far has been 87*F at ATL. No rain today. After the mid-level clouds mixed out and shifted SE during the mid-late morning hours, it's been sunny with SCT culumus clouds. Dewpoints a bit lower too, in the upper 60s.
-
Had thunderstorms in the vicinity for the past 3 days. Should maybe get a break today. Interestingly enoughh, ATL overachieved Tuesday and Wednesday with highs of 88*F and 89*F. And even with highs now mainly in the low/mid 80s, average highs are now in the upper 70s and lows are still well above average (around 70*F).

GGEM pops a massive 594+ DM ridge over NC by the end of its run (240hr).
-
So that means even less model downtime, because by the time the 18z / 06z EURO likely finishes, the 00z / 12z NAM will likely rolling. Plus, it will be hourly data up to 90hrs and 3-hourly data from 93 to 144hrs.
-
Not sure if you all got the memo, but starting in October, the EURO will run for 4 cycles / day.
-
With a +NAO / -PNA? Don't hold your breath
-
And beyond if its heights at 384hr were any sign. It has support from the EURO/GGEM (through 240hr) too.
-
ATL somehow managed yet another 90*F high today, lol. Skies were also mostly sunny again.
-
Also, the "coldest" low this month to-date was 69*F back on 9/17. Other than that, ATL hasn't seen another low below 71*F this month.
-
Currently 91*F at ATL, making this the 6th 90*F+ day in a row and the 14th 90*F+ day this month. Some isolated covection is starting to bubble up though, after mostly sunny skies for the balance of the day.
-
The high yesterday at ATL was 90*F with mostly sunny skies. Temps do moderate after today, but will still be above average for the forseeable future. Latest model runs have backed off on the cold front passage this upcoming week and reestablish a strong SE ridge.
-
What a difference the fall line makes.
-
Made it to 91*F here and 92*F at ATL today with mostly sunny skies.
-
Correction: It was actually 92*F here.
