That was a tough loss. We've not had such a painful FG miss since 2010 vs Alabama, and that one was blocked. Team looked better than I expected on offense, but man, gotta make that kick.

Just read about a fairly rare SSW taking place over the South Pole. The article said that SSWs that happen there in August-October generally saw BN temps over the Central and Eastern U.S., and a warm Europe the following D-F.

Trees going red here already.

Slow, soaker of a rain event today. Working on 5 inches of rain this week.

The GFS is almost assuredly too cold, but it has some temps in the upper 30s to lower/mid 40s at the end of the run.

Heck of a windy storm blowing through here now. Looks like the mid-state is also getting heavy rain too.

It's humid as all get out and was a good 12 degrees warmer in West Knoxville this evening that it is back home. Looks like the storms are going to hold off until after the game.

Heading down to Karns for high school football this evening. It looks like the storms will arrive here after Friday night lights are done. At least I hope so.

I ended up with 2.3 inches after more rain through around 7:30.

Picked up another 1.1 inches of rain between 1:30 and 4:30.

Absolutely flooding down here again. I honestly didn't expect nearly this much rain this week. I wish the middle and western areas were getting in on it.

Picked up .95 today so far, one severe warned storm but the wording at the bottom said "tornado possible" with it.

That storm that just passed dropped half an inch in 35 minutes and had some very loud thunder due to some really close cloud to ground on the ridge behind my house.

I'm also a fan of the daily rain as we head into dry season. I've has 1.25 inches the first two days this week and it's coming down outside now.

My air conditioner hasn't ran for 9 straight days to close August and begin September. That's unheard of. I just leave the windows open at night and the house has dropped down into the mid-60s. The highest it's gotten inside in that time frame is 73. Looks like I will be able to keep the a/c off the rest of the week as well, as long as we can keep getting into the 50s at night.
