September Sizzling Summer Segway

September 2019 rainfall at the home of BufordWX: 0.24

September 2020 rainfall at the home of BufordWX: 5.89 (So far)

Just a little wetter this September then last September.
Ive always said that Sept is either feast or famine, all depending on how active the tropics are. Sept is either bone dry or very wet. Not much in between.

The historic Atlanta flood of 2009 occurred in September. I believe parts of western Atlanta had over 20 inches of rain in less then 24 hours during it.
 
I’d have to say if we frost this early our growing season would be the shortest ever . Literally mid may to mid September . That’s the kind of growing season you get in super high latitude subarctic places in eastern Canada .

My Zoysia didn't really wake up till last week of June, from several late Cad's, including that high of 57! Now it's beginning to slow down. I didn't start my watermelon until end of May, and they didn't do a whole lot in June. They are just now ripening and they taste like crap from ripening in cooler weather & lower sun angles / shorter days.
 
Would love for today's high temp prediction to bust, and it might if we stay cloudy due to the north winds.

80 was predicted.
 
I think some parts of the NC foothills will see some frost with isolated areas outside seeing some
 
Looks like the PNW trough might be a little shorter lived in the extended thus shorter duration ridging in the east into New England.

May be another round of eastern troughing and below normal temps during the first week of October. As long as the AAM stays neutral to positive I'll take the normal to below temps

Looks like a pattern similar to last April/May with very transient ridging around here, and those big UL troughs favoring severe, i think this time period needs to be watched given the transient nature of this pattern

I’m glad you are getting the cold out of the way in September! It’ll make for a nice spring from November to March! ?
 
66 degrees this morning and it feels amazing. And this is only the beginning. Could see upper 40s to around 50 in a few days. I'm excited. We only got around .3 inches of rain from Sally though, so that was disappoint.
66 is pretty warm for you this time of year isn't it ? Seems very balmy.
