I haven't really spent much time looking at the extended range but I've heard that Autumn looks above normal temperature wise.

Well if that's the case, it would be sticking with the trend.  Probably not going to have 2015/2016 like warmth being that we came off much hotter Summer's, but above normal wouldn't surprise me.

Above the 1981-2010 norms is an easy call. those so called averages are not normal temperatures for today's climate.

   Areas affected...Eastern PA...southern NY...northern NJ

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 464...

   Valid 222307Z - 230100Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 464
   continues.

   SUMMARY...A few storms may increase in intensity as they progress
   across eastern Pennsylvania and vicinity. Damaging winds, a
   brief/weak tornado, and marginal hail are all possible.

   DISCUSSION...Surface analysis shows continued pressure falls across
   eastern PA, ahead of the main line of storms. In addition, this
   corridor currently is near the instability axis, with MLCAPE around
   1500 J/kg. Deep-layer shear remains favorable for long-lived severe
   storms, roughly 45-50 kt and at a large angle to the front. 0-1 km
   SRH also remains favorable for supercells and/or a brief tornado at
   over 100 M2/s2.

   Recent radar trends have shown some increase in cells ahead of the
   line, and if this trend persists, some of these cells may turn right
   and become supercells, with threat of a brief tornado, hail, and
   damaging wind.
