Keep that rain away. Let’s go a full two months of San Diego.
The hiking and mountain biking is the best it’s been all year, no mud, bone dry. Like Colorado.
First snow in Utah’s Wasatch Range.
Alta, Snowbird, Brighton, Solitude, Park City and Deer Valley.
Little Cottonwood Canyon is the most impressive terrain for vertical relief. Just steep walls everywhere.
Just day after day of perfect weather.
82/55
I was wrong with the 80s. Thought we’d be more mid-upper 70s but we are dry low-80s daily at this point. 5 in a row.
MVL was -1.7 for monthly departure 4 days ago… now it’s +1.2 and climbing like a half a degree upward per day lol.
If there is a time for dry warmth… it’s this time of year.
It softens the blow of the decreasing sun angle too. We are maximizing sunshine and warmth during a time when the days start shortening more rapidly.
Also the vegetation is going dormant soon. It may look burnt, but grasses are hardy. NE vegetation can take a dry month or two on the backend of the season… after a wet summer.
It is a time to get outdoors.
72F at ALB at 11pm in mid-September is pretty warm.
57F here, which is warm but 10 degrees cooler than BTV. But to the east BLM is 50F in NNH.
The interior SE Mass cool pocket that radiates is always fun to see… TAN at 50F and widespread low/mid 50s in SE NE.
Dry/drought and high pressure letting the sandy desert radiate down there.
It is warm but looks like normals in the Champlain Valley are still mid-70s, with Montreal closer to 70F.
I guess relatively speaking it’s like a 90-degree day in July for BTV to Montreal.
BTV record max is still in the 90s right now, so a max of 82F today is warm but a long way from anything noteworthy.
Interesting the first 12 days of the month averaged -1.7 here. I can't remember the last time we got a stretch like that... maybe a year ago?
Of course yesterday was +9 and that -1.7 went to -0.9 and give it another 2 days and we'll be at normal departures for the month... then go above as the warmth looks to stay.
As soon as the air mass got dry and it stopped raining, we ripped off about two weeks of legit below normal temps because the overnight mins could do what climo thinks they should do.
A sign of the times and lowering sun angle…
It takes forever to burn off the fog this time of year. 9am and still M1/4 near zero vis in thick fog.
A couple months ago this couldn’t have lasted past 7am.

It's doing the lord's work for DIT... dews up to 61F now (66/61) in light rain at MVL. Just injected a little bit of moisture to up the dew from 54F into the low-60s.
I'm sure as soon as the sun comes out it'll drop back though, ha.
Radiators mount up tonight. MVL ASOS just plummeted from 70F this afternoon to 48F at 8pm.
Feels like we may get into the 30s given the afternoon dew points.
lol at the neighborhood temps… 49F at the neighbors here at the bottom of the hill along the golf course and river… While it’s 59F like 400ft higher.
A 10F difference in like a mile up Weeks Hill.
