Cfa Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Today was perfect, 76/50 with blue dome skies. Not sure why anyone would want to be bundled up with frost bite anytime soon (or ever). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 While New York City is on the brink of having a record 4th consecutive September with a 70° or above mean temperature, Tampa is having a historic September. The temperature reached 97° in Tampa today. That set both a daily and monthly record high temperature. The previous daily record high temperature was 93°, which was set in 1961 and tied in 1986 and 2002. The previous monthly record high temperature was 96°, which was set on September 2, 1912, and tied on September 4, 1912, September 5, 1941, September 2, 1958, September 4, 1961, September 7, 1961, September 1, 1963, September 19, 1972, September 6-7, 1991, and September 20, 2018. With today's record warmth, September 2018 remains on track to become Tampa's warmest month on record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember those well-yet we been quite cold with above average snowfall very frequently since 2000-I’m referring to one of those winters when people freak out about the lack of snow, say less than 7 inches of snow and the snow that does fall melts quickly. Those types of winters seem to me to have occurred more frequently back before y2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We definitely didn’t have snowcover in much of the area from mid-January through February. In fact we were busy in the lab dealing with ticks that were out!

All the record warmth over the last 3 winters resulted in quick melt after most of our snowstorms. ISP set the record lowest number of days with 1" or more on the ground for a 60"+ season. So much snow coming later in the season enhanced this 3 year pattern for 17-18.

doncat Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 For my station Sept was the 5th warmest with 40 years of record, driven entirely by the high mins. The average daily max temp was actually slightly below average but the mins were close to +5°. The month also had a small avg diurnal range of 11°.
