Yep, looks like the rain is edging north again. It's just unbelievable how persistent this is over months now.

Ended with .01”. And yes it is incredible. The most localized intense drought you could dream up. I wonder if it has anything to do with increased water temps. Which would make sense, in that a place like Florida will constantly see convention from and sit just a few miles from the beach.
We’ll see what strataform season brings. I doubt this can continue

Morning thoughts…

Today will be partly to mostly sunny and warm. Some scattered showers are possible. High temperatures will reach the lower and middle 70s in most of the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include:

New York City (Central Park): 74°

Newark: 76°

Philadelphia: 77°

Tomorrow will be slightly cooler. The week will end with cool temperatures.

Normals:

New York City: 30-Year: 72.3°; 15-Year: 73.5°

Newark: 30-Year: 73.8°; 15-Year: 75.2°

Philadelphia: 30-Year: 75.1°; 15-Year: 76.3°

The record blocking will result in a cooler pattern into next weekend across the area. So Ian is expected to stall out near the Gulf Coast of Florida. This is a continuation of needing record blocking just to get cooler than average temperatures around here.

I’m sure we will lose the blocking by December

The last 5 days of September are averaging  63degs.(56/71) or -2.

Ian and monthly: Ian substantial rains unlikely (my wrong prior expectation) to arrive prior to Oct 1 so LGA and BDR top 20 month of Sept rainfall will remain as is (even with a small shower or two the next couple of days), within the shorter period of record dating back to the 1940s.  00z/26 GEPS is the only ensemble (recent cycles coming on board) that has decent qpf up here late Friday Sept 30.  CoCoRaHs rainfall for yesterday is attached (please click for clarity). Noting the south shore of LI pretty much missed again. Also, very little rain extreme nw NJ (0.01 this part of Wantage at our home) and POU area. 

Ian: highest PW-moisture still destined up here but possibly delayed til Sunday Oct2?  Ensembles peel the heavier rains eastward just south of our NYC subforum. Presuming it comes up here as a nor'easter, then squally ne winds. All this paragraph still TBD. 

Finally for all the Mets fans: Ian "may" force one of the  Fri or Sat night games to be placed into a day-night double header Sunday Oct 2?  Long ways off and timing is everything so maybe these play with normal 720PM starting times, though I foresee delays.  26/1314z

Looks like JFK did make it to 0.5"

I wonder when the last time was JFK had an event that dumped 1.00" or more?

It's that and also entering the cool phase of the AMO.  I believe we are in store for some fair weather low rainfall summers :-)

Isn't this good for winter forecasts as October blocking usually foretells winter blocking?

Good morning Liberty. I wonder when/if, on our present trajectory it will take blocking in January just to get to 0 C in the inner city. Stay well, as always …..

what causes this persistence?  Strong bermuda high?

At this point it’s hard to say. The rainfall boundaries have kept setting up like this over northern NYC and northern LI. From time to time the sea breeze boundaries cause more rain to develop over central/northern LI but it’s been so excessive that it can’t be the overall story.

67 and sunny.  Looks like the work week should feature mainly sunny / dry conditions and wonderful weather.  Next shot at rain would be this coming weekend 10/1-2 with where / what ever remnants of Ian crawling up or off the Mid Atlantic coast.  Probably near normal beyond Ian in the 10/3 - 10/6 period then ridging may build back into the EC.

 

MLB with huge headache this week as Ian may disrupt many critical and pivotal games Tues - Fri along the FL / GA.

I was wondering if we're becoming the new Florida.

But this does seem to be excessive even for that.

Do you remember 2002 at all? Was that drought similar to this one?

At this point all stadiums should have removable domes.

That they don't means their owners don't care about their teams.
