September 2018 Discussions & Observations Thread

Providence has had 21 90° days (same as 1941 and 1980). Only 1983 (30), 1944 (29), and 2002 (26) had more. Providence has also seen the average number of such days per year increase. 1951-80: 7.9; 1989-2018: 11.2; 2010-18: 13.1; Historic 1905-2018 Period: 9.6 The evolving El Niño probably makes 2002 a better match than 1983 (1982-83 had a much stronger and basinwide El Niño event). -

Today was Boston’s 23rd day on which the temperature reached 90° or higher. Only 6 years have had more such days: 1983: 30 1955: 28 1991 and 2002: 27 1988 and 2010: 25 The return time for years with 20 or more such days has been falling. Historic (1872-2018): 9.2 years Prior to 1950: 19.8 years 1950-2018: 5.8 years 1980-2018: 3.9 years 2010-2018: 3.0 years The average number of 90° days per year has also been increasing. Historic (1872-2018): 11.7 per year 1921-50: 11.9 per year 1951-80: 12.6 per year 1989-2018: 13.7 per year 2010-2018: 16.2 In addition, 3 of Boston’s 10 days with minimum temperatures of 80° or above have occurred in the 2010-2018 period. The August 29, 2018 minimum temperature of 81° was, by far, Boston’s latest such minimum temperature on record. The previous latest 80° minimum temperature was set on August 2, 1975. -
Hurricane Florence Catch all Thread
donsutherland1 replied to Brian5671's topic in New York City Metro
The “new info” was probably the GFS. No other model was running at that time. It’s too soon to reach firm conclusions, but Florence should be watched. A threat still exists. The EPS shows it. -

JFK was 89 and NYC was 93. It’s been drier up in New England and I am sure that contributed. -

The 9/3/2018 minimum temperature of 76° at New Haven set a new September record. The previous warmest minimum temperature on record in New Haven was 75°, which was set in 1977 and tied in 2014 and 2015. So far, today's minimum temperature there is 77°, however possible thunderstorms could result in a lower figure by day's end. -

Hurricane Florence Catch all Thread

The UKMET is a southern outlier right now, but the pattern continues to strongly argue for East Coast interests to watch Florence. The 0z EPS vividly illustrated the risk. -

While such an extreme storm appears unlikely, Florence still needs to be watched for a possible push toward the East Coast next week. A cluster of EPS ensembles shows just a threat. It’s far too soon to write it off. -
