24 hours 'til fall.

Bring it already. The wait has been long and painful. Just an amazingly long lasting and awful pattern. I cannot recall anything like this in my lifetime. Yeah we can get some warm periods in late Sept into Oct, but the extended period of anomalous warmth and humidity has been remarkable. Hopefully it will be a distant memory very soon.

Missed all the Michael coverage this morning :cry:and just took a look at the 3knam and its showing  wind gusts to 40 + tomorrow evening overnight for the metros and north and west . Not exactly a total miss even  here with impacts.  A lot of loose soil still and a few trees down wouldn't surprise me if gusts to 40 verify 

It would be nice to get a rogue heavy rain band or two with those gusts.

If we get a longlasting wet pattern like this in the Mid Atlantic this winter, all of you living there will be literally up to your necks in snow. I think there may develop an extreme anomalous pattern in January 2019 in Washington DC that will cause a snowstorm there to stall and have an extreme influx of moisture all the way from the Caribbean and tropical Pacific that will cause Washington DC and surrounding areas to pick up an unprecedented four feet of snow.

THAT, will be only one of the anomalously extreme snowstorms in the Mid Atlantic this winter.

This is going to be a near record or an outright record snow winter in the Washington DC Metropolitan Region for no other reason, than the fact that I now reside in south central Texas lol.

BTW, today dewpoints finally fell to only 61 degrees. It felt like November in Dale City lol. Down here in Buda TX we have had highs in the 80s / dewpoints from 75 to 78 degrees for at least the past 3 weeks lol. Dale City's average high/low is now 69/49. Buda TX's average high/low is now 83/62. When I arrived in Buda on Aug 26, a Sunday afternoon at 450pm CDT, the average high/low then was 99/77. Now THAT'S hot. Since then, we have had 12.5 inches of rain here in south central TX in Sept and another 3.5 inches of rain down here so far in Oct. Welcome to a weak El Nino lol. That screams big snow winter up in the Mid Atlantic!

With rainfall from Michael spreading into the region, Baltimore and Washington, DC are again moving higher on their all-time annual precipitation lists.

As of 8:20 am, Baltimore's annual precipitation was 54.86". Today's rainfall allowed 2018 to surpass 2009 when 54.71" precipitation fell, for that city's 8th wettest year on record.

Washington, DC's 2018 figure had reached 49.96", tying 2018 with 1884 for Washington's 19th wettest year on record.

In case anyone was wondering, its still muggy as fuuck outside.  Please have this cold front do to the humid air what the Saints offense did to the Skins defense

Please, make this so. the humidity is starting to cause my hardwood floors to cup, despite keeping the AC on very cold.  Probably should get a dehumidifier.
