Is the gfs too warm later this week/ next weekend? either way once past monday , much warmer starting Wed.  Might be the coolest for a long while.

That wouldn't be the worse thing to happen. A cold fall can make for a long winter. Also warmer than normal temps this time of year and into October can be pleasant rather than hot.

Models have been all over the place but warmer than normal should win out.

Also already 47F at 11PM, gonna take the under with 46F forecast low.

The next 8 days are averaging 69degs.     Make it 64degs., or -2.5.

53*(48%RH) here at 6am, m. clear.     52* at 6:30am.        64* by 3pm.

The Tropics:  26.7N 92.7W-I might do some damage yet.    28.0N 62.0W-hotel rates in Bermuda are too high, I'll skip by to the east,  15N 42W-die already.

The Euro and GFS have us getting back to the 80s by later in the week. But it looks like we will come up short on reaching 90°. So this could be the first fall since 2011 without any 90° degree days at Newark. The last fall at LGA without any 90s was 2012.

Will probably run some trajectories on BETA moist remnants by Tuesday the 22nd, to support possible moisture contribution to the large scale trough developing into the eastern USA around Monday the 28th.  From what I can tell, the initial BETA contribution will be swept eastward, well to our south this coming Friday-Saturday,. Thereafter, it appears to me some of that remnant moisture will be drawn northward along the east coast.  NAEFS now onto a potentially meaningful rain event (nne-ssw bands) for early next week (28-29).  We'll see if se NYS and extreme nw NJ benefit from this.  No rain here since the 10th. 808A/20

Morning thoughts...

The coldest air so far this season remains in place. Today will be partly sunny and still very cool for the season. The temperature will likely top out in the lower and middle 60s across the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include:

New York City (Central Park): 64°
Newark: 65°
Philadelphia: 66°

Toward the middle of this week, a warmer pattern will develop.

In terms of verification, here's how last evening's estimates worked out:

Albany: 35°; Actual: 34°
Allentown: 39°; Actual: 36°
Boston: 46°; Actual: 44°
Bridgeport: 47°; Actual: 49°
Harrisburg: 42°; Actual: 43°
Hartford: 38°; Actual: 36°
Islip: 48°; Actual: 48°
New York City: 48°; Actual: 50°
Newark: 47°; Actual: 48°
Philadelphia: 47°; Actual: 47°
Poughkeepsie: 37°; Actual: 36°
Providence: 44°; Actual: 46°
White Plains: 42°; Actual: 45°

Average Error: 1.5°

Yeah, it does look like that big Western Ridge builds again to close out the month. So a deep trough in the Great Lakes would probably mean a wetter pattern for us. Any remnant tropical moisture from BETA would enhance our rainfall prospects.

UHI effect rarely fails us. As always....

Lets hope we see this in December and not the opposite

We’ll see if we can get some early hints from the MJO in October. The 18-19 and 19-20 below normal snowfall La Niña background state winters featured the October MJO convection focused in the Indian Ocean. Our snowier 16-17 and 17-18 La Niña winters  had the October MJO in the Maritime Continent phases.

58/33 from a low of 40.4 (no frost).  36 more hours of this very cool airmass before moderation on Tue.  Much warmer Wed - Fri (low 80s in the warmer spots).  Flow may go predominantly more southerly later next weekend into next week (9/27). Deep trough into the GL, MW, MV and swinging through the southeast and east coast towards the beginning of next month but moderated airmass wont be nearly as cool as this for next 2 weeks.

Summer freezes? 
from Rutgers weather station 

 

Summer freezes are uncommon but not unprecedented at some NJ locations.  Today marks the second consecutive day with low temperatures at or below freezing at several Rutgers NJ Weather Network stations.  Yesterday, September 19, Walpack (Sussex County) fell to 29°, with Sandyston (Sussex) and Pequest (Warren) both down to 31°.  This morning, Walpack bottomed out at 31°, with Pequest and Basking Ridge (Somerset) each at 32°.  
Walpack was last down to freezing on June 1, leaving this cold-air drainage prone valley site in northwest Jersey with a short 109 day growing season (days between last spring and first fall freeze).  Meanwhile, several coastal stations had their last freeze on March 1, thus have had a 203 day growing season....and counting.

Currently the convection isn’t where you want it if you want a snowy Niña

No, it’s definitely not and the ongoing huge wildfires out west aren’t what you want either. They are altering the stratosphere in a way that supports +AO

The two biggest factors for nyc winters are the PV and tropical forcing. We really won’t know what they will look like until December IMO.

June 1st was only down to 46 here.  Dont recall that but interesting.

Can’t disagree with that. I do think we will absolutely need the NAO to cooperate this winter. I have a feeling the AO and the PAC side are going to be hostile. You can already see signs of a firehose PAC jet again and we are already dealing with La Niña/-PDO

I wouldn’t expect nao help until it’s 3 days out lol. We haven’t had a -nao in DJF in years. Anybody that says they know one is coming can also sell you a bridge in Brooklyn.

We would need to see all that IO forcing shift east toward the Maritime Continent in October. The big amped up MJO 5 in October 2017 came before the snowy La Niña 17-18 winter.  The strong IO MJO 1 in October 2011 preceded the 11-12 La Niña winter. There is some research that early IO forcing can excite the PV like we saw last winter.

Our growing season now averages around 220 days.

Hence the Crepe Myrtle you now see quite often on Long Island.
