That’s the power of Miami dew points in September. Just add a weak stalled out front and we are in business.

Historical:

 

1900: The remnants of the Great Galveston Hurricane were located over central Iowa on this day. Eastern Nebraska, northwest Iowa, and southern Minnesota show four-plus inches of rain from this storm.

1949 - An early snowstorm brought 7.5 inches to Helena MT. In Maine, a storm drenched New Brunswick with 8.05 inches of rain in 24 hours, a state record. (The Weather Channel)

1961 - Very large and slow moving Hurricane Carla made landfall near Port Lavaca TX. Carla battered the central Texas coast with wind gusts to 175 mph, and up to 16 inches of rain, and spawned a vicious tornado which swept across Galveston Island killing eight persons. The hurricane claimed 45 lives, and caused 300 million dollars damage. The remnants of Carla produced heavy rain in the Lower Missouri Valley and southern sections of the Upper Great Lakes Region. (David Ludlum) (Storm Data)

1976 - Up to five inches of rain brought walls of water and millions of tons of debris into Bullhead City AZ via washes from elevations above 3000 feet. Flooding caused more than three million dollars damage. Chasms up to forty feet deep were cut across some roads. (The Weather Channel)

1986 - Thunderstorms caused flash flooding and subsequent river flooding in central Lower Michigan. Up to 14 inches of rain fell in a 72 hour period, and flooding caused 400 million dollars damage. (Storm Data)

1987 - Late afternoon and evening thunderstorms produced large hail and damaging winds in Texas, and spawned three tornadoes. Thunderstorm winds gusted to 70 mph at Goodnight TX. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

1988 - Snow blanketed parts of the Central Rocky Mountain Region and the Central Plateau, with ten inches reported at Mount Evans in Colorado. Smoke from forest fires in the northwestern U.S. reached Pennsylvania and New York State. Hurricane Gilbert, moving westward over the Carribean, was packing winds of 100 mph by the end of the day. (National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

1989 - Nine cities in the north central U.S. reported record low temperatures for the date, including Havre MT with a reading of 23 degrees. Livingston MT and West Yellowstone MT tied for honors as the cold spot in the nation with morning lows of 17 degrees. Thunderstorms produced hail over the Sierra Nevada Range of California, with two inches reported on the ground near Donner Summit. The hail made roads very slick, resulting in a twenty car accident. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

 

2011: Hurricane Erin was off the coast of New Jersey and New York on this day.

How closely do the PRISM numbers agree with the officially tallies from NOAA? A mean of 72.98F would be 15th warmest overall, between 2007 & 1933. I would have thought this would be a Top 10 hottest summer with the record-breaking heat in the south and parts of the west.

Note that the PRISM anomaly is based off 1991-2020 climatology, whereas the NOAA anomalies are based off the cooler 20th century mean [1901-2000]. 

Also worth noting that while this may be the 15th warmest summer overall, it is warmer nationally than all but three summers prior to 2000 (those three being the notorious drought years of 1934, 1936 & 1988).

With today's data release, NOAA's NCEI has confirmed this to be the 15th warmest summer on record nationally, with a nationwide mean temperature of 73.01F - placing slightly ahead of 1933 and just a hair behind 2007. As noted, only three summers of the 20th century were warmer (1934, 1936 & 1988).

True dat. Although I’ve had two pretty good downpours today. Popped up out of nowhere, almost Florida like weather. Kicked the humidity up to ludicrous speed however 

[psv88]

nice heavy downpour for manhattan..

[bluewave]

Easy to get record high dew points and training convection when the When the SSTs are 80° off the Jersey Shore and upper 70s in the Long Island Sound. These bouy temperatures would be more common in July than in September.
