Misc Jalapeño July

Trying to decide if we should go to the park nearby to catch the firework show in town tonight. Wonder if we can dodge the storms to the south.

ATL's average hottest of the May-June period since 1950 has been in the 94-95 range. In 2017, it was only 90. Only 5 since 1950 have had a cooler hottest: 88 in 2003, 89 in 2001, 89 in 1997, 89 in 1973, and 88 in 1961. Three other years had exactly 90: 1972, 1967, and 1965. 91's were the hottest in 2005, 1975, 1974, and 1966. What were the hottest of Jul-Sep for these years?

2005: 94
2003: 92
2001: 93
1997: 95
1975: 96
1974: 92
1973: 92
1972: 94
1967: 90
1966: 96
1965: 92
1961: 92

So, all 12 of these years had the hottest of Jul-Sep of 96 or cooler. The significance of that is that the average hottest of Jul-Sep since 1950 has been near 97. Also, these 12 averaged only 93 for the hottest in Jul-Sep, which is 4 cooler than the average since 1950. That tells me that there is a pretty good correlation between the hottest in May-June and the hottest during the rest of the summer. I suspect that the main reason for this is good soil moisture from late spring/early summer carrying over its cooling influence into mid to late summer. Of course, that also means humidity might average on the higher side.

So what's this mean/meant for the following winters!??
 
Even though it's going to mean high heat I might finally be ready for a break from it being around average temps...lost power today during the second thunderstorm.
 
Red, white and blue, all in the perfect alignment today ... :cool:

The heat that we had been avoiding is finally here today and for the rest of this week! Aaaagggggghhhhhh! At least it means a break from rain, but still.

A break from the rain???? It's rained the last two days here and rain looks likely Thursday into Friday for a large portion of the SE

Yeah in the Tennessee valley and west of the mountains. Little rain south of I-20 and over SC. I'm starting to think July is going to be MUCH different than June. Some of us may stay under 1 inch for the month and 100+ heat will probably show up soon. The drought is gone for now, but will be coming back before summer is over.

nothing supports the idea of 100 degree plus heat . If anything , long range ideas support a normal month temp wise

Well, maybe I should be freaking out with the CMC at that point. Lol

WxSouth said in a FB post yesterday that at some point , he expects a piece of the death ridges that have been out west, to break off and head our way!

As long as we continue to put copious amounts of water into the ground and if this NINO decides to come on, good luck with that dearth ridge persisting for any considerable length of time down here...
 
Had a pretty good storm roll through last night. WRAL saying the coverage for storms today should be greater than yesterday, but it's been very overcast so far this morning, so not sure if that will keep the instability down. Guess it's supposed to clear later and get hotter and muggier. Just have to wait and see.
 
Sun is out now. Humidity at 77%. We'll probably have storms around, just a matter of exactly where they pop up.
