Sept 2019 Observations

[Iceagewhereartthou]

Highs today:

ATL  99

CLT  98

CAE  97

RDU  96

GSP  96

PTI   95

TYS  94

AVL  91

Almost all of these were records, except CAE (not sure about TYS).

I noticed Augusta to CAE to FLO were not as hot as some other cities, relative to normal, clouds or just wind flow or orientation of the high?

Anyway, crazy stretch especially ATL seems to have been the epicenter; 10 straight days at 95 or higher.

[FallsLake]

Definitely feel the difference this morning with the frontal passage. Cooler and overcast with a stiff NE wind. Still not the cool crisp dew points we're waiting for but a good break from the last couple of days.  

[yotaman]

Temp is down but not the humidity. Currently 83/76.

[LithiaWx]

97 so far today at ATL.  Maybe we overachieve and hit 100 today.  Already a new record for the date with that 97 

[Fantom X]

85/74  - Clouds are starting to roll in

hoping for some rain. 17th day in a row without rain

98 today.  We have been busting high by a few degrees each day this week.  Brutal. 

[shaggy]

 Very comfortable day here today. Cloudy low 80s and a stiff cool NE breeze. I'll take it.

Finally! Almost an inch of much needed rain. The wind made a mess of the yard, but it was worth it. 

[yotaman]

.30" yesterday. Currently 86/76.

I second that...got .85 here last night and it was desperately needed. Now if only we can get this infuriating heat to go away. 

[mackerel_sky]

0 yesterday. Still not a drop the whole month of September, today ain’t looking good, then 10-15 more drought and 90s

[FLweather]

Very reasonable day. Can't complain today. 

Low to mid 80s. 

Had 5-6 showers today. Looks like another here shortly.

Been windy not so much today. But these little cells are very fast. 

 

[Solak]

It would be nice if there was some weather to type about. Hard to get excited about today's 30% chance and another washed out frontal system.

[yotaman]

Cloudy this morning but very humid. Currently sunny and 87/75.

[Solak]

Chances down to 20%

P/C; 84/70 right now.

[yotaman]

87/75. Looking forward to the big cool down this week.

[Iceagewhereartthou]

GSP supposed to be 82/62 today with average temps dropping every couple of days.  We ain't been CLOSE  to that!

Our 30 year averages are going to skyrocket once the 80s drop off and we figure in the 2010s.

That's a good thing. Then you won't have to complain about temps being so far above average. You can just enjoy!

Except I'll remember the good old (cooler) days. 

[Iceagewhereartthou]

Don't think I've ever seen GMU (Greenville downtown airport) still at 81 this time of night in September. That is nuts! I'm at 68 imby; big time heat urban island effect !

[NorthHillsWx]

Ready for the ccoldown! A warmer than expected 91 imby! Per ususal

[yotaman]

Currently 85/73. Where is the cool air?

Gonna feel awesome once it gets here. Just wish it wasn't going to get hot again in a couple days. 

[NRVwxfan.]

It's here in the New River Valley. Currently 76 after a high of 80. Nice Northeast breeze. Was a hot 88 yesterday.

[LithiaWx]

98 in Atlanta and 103 in Macon.  Both records for the date. 

[Solak]

Stole a 30 second baby sprinkle from the dry front!!! Winning!

WOW. Also 96 CAE, 95 GSP, 94 CLT, and even 90 AVL. This has been truly ridiculous, especially the daily highs. I though last Sept was bad but geez.

[Reedski]

Dry as a bone in CAE.  Missed the line of storms that came through last Friday.  Don't even remember the last time we got a good soaking IMBY.  Welcome the cooler temps this weekend but, man, need some rain.  Nothing but sunshine on the 10 day last I checked either.  

[yotaman]

Finally, the cool air has arrived. Currently a very pleasant 76/60 and breezy.
