Friday is looking like a lot of people get a shower or two for many, especially out SD’s way!
 
Tiny bit of good news. KATL may not quite reach the mid 90s the rest of the month as it may stay at 93 and lower. We'll see. Regardless, 91-93 the next 9 days is ridiculous!
 
KATK is now at 82.2 MTD, which is only 0.1 under the hottest June on record (1952) and 2nd to Sept of 1925 for the hottest Sept! They should end up near 82.2 based on current projections.

1925 - hmmmm - no mass of people, no asphalt, no airport, no SUV's; 1952 - still a little sleepy southern town with a rail station and a small landing strip on a farm ... hmmmm ...
 
KSAV had a record breaking high today of 98, which obliterated the old high of 95! Only one day after today on record back to 1873 was this hot, 98 on 9/28/1986! Also, today’s high was the hottest since all the way back on August 10! Are we headed toward autumn or am I mistaken?

Yeah we will probably go straight into winter and then have “fall” weather mixed in occasionally.
 
Dang, never heard of "flash drought" before..... although I'm sure some would argue they've been in a drought for sometime, seems a cop out for them to finally upgrade the area??

From US Drought Monitor:
Triple-digit daytime highs and pronounced short-term rainfall deficits (60-day rainfall totaling less than 40 percent of normal) heightened evapotranspiration rates and soil moisture losses, resulting in quickly escalating drought impacts (often referred to as a “flash drought”.) It should be noted that “flash drought” impacts often materialize more quickly than the precipitation data indicates due to the heat.
 
06z GFS keeps the SW half of the region (GA / AL/ N. FL) above average through the week after next, as the cold front stalls to the NE.
 
So much for a colorful fall. Leaves will be going straight to brown this year.
The weather people around here are hyping great fall color because of the drought, and the forestry people from Clemson, are where they get this from! SMDH
