I believe they corrected the high to 81 degrees.

We are about to complete a 30 day period at +8 degs. (9/13-10/12)    Since +7degs. seems to be the limit in the Sept./Oct. period, I have to assume if this period had a name it would go down as the warmest month ever at this time of the year.   96% of 30 day periods during a year of course have no name, and are not recorded as separate entities.

Incredible torch after such a cool finish to August and the start of September.   Bone dry too which of course has helped that 30 day +8 departure.

Loved the late August feel today, although the leaves starting to change and the earlier Sunsets do put a damper on the otherwise Summery appeal. After a brief cool down the next few days, we should be back near 80 by the weekend followed by another brief cool down and then wash, rinse, repeat. No meaningful rain for the foreseeable future either. Some areas might see a little rain tomorrow night but the otherwise stormy pattern advertised about a week ago has all but vanished. We cannot even deliver a meaningful rainstorm with tropical remnants riding a potent frontal boundary.
