Pattern Hotober

Downsloping flow off the mountains will help elevate temps even more tommorow in NC/SC, means a increase fire risk and that flow suppresses convection and means breezy weather
 
I've gotten so used to the 95+ degree days this summer, that these last couple 98 degree days really are not that bad. I've been going for walks, and I am quiet accustomed to the heat now. I can't wait for it to end, but its sad that 95+ has become so normal that it feels fine now lol
 
KATL at bare minimum has hit 94. All they need is two more degrees for alltime Oct high!

Yep, and this up-coming cool-down will really feel crisp.

Yep, glad I’m not alone, been outside a lot this past summer and it’s been like this since May, it’s doesn’t even feel bad nomore, to the point where I don’t care for a cool down or for this to continue, lol
 
While the 90's will be gone, the EURO weeklies are above normal for the SE almost until Thanksgiving and unfortunately mostly dry as well. The SE ridge is going nowhere until we move out of Phase 1 of the MJO

My AC and my power bill could both use a break. Haven't gotten to use the attic fan since last Spring. I always look forward to turning it on and bringing in that cool fresh air.

Knock the dust off first Lol
 
Utility contractor here. On behalf of everyone who works outside for a living, I would like publicly to denounce the “it’s not that hot” ‘ers

It’s hot
Tied all time high for October! @ 97, may have crept up a degree to beat it!?
Tomorrow looks like a slam dunk 99-100 degrees

same here, I've been going outside as much as possible especially the last month or two tbh
 
obliterated the all-time October record here in CHA. it was 94. we hit 97 yesterday and 99 today thus far. might top out at 100

A lot of it is mental. You are ok with the heat now because you know the heat won't last much longer. If you knew that the heat were never going to end, you would have a different mindset. Plus, September and October heat just doesn't feel as bad as summer heat. Shorter days, lower sun angle, etc.
 
Can’t help but marvel at the resiliency of the ridge throughout the 18z run

KATL did it: 96 today makes it a new alltime high record for October, beating old record of 95. And there are still two more similar days to go that may allow a 97 or even a 98?!?!

RDU also hit 96 today but that's not the all time record; it's 98. But we're not safe, tomorrow may tie or beat that.
 
Yeah at least temperature wise the GFS is pretty much fine past Friday to me. It'd be asking for a bit much to get very cool and stay it. Just throw these 95+'s and hopefully 90+'s too in the trash, please.

I only see occasional ridging after we get next week's front. That's kinda what crankywxguy was alluding to in his blog post. He said that once the pattern changed, any differences would be ebbs and flows and not a true "oh no".

Way too early for "oh no" if we're talking cool; not too early for a pop-up thunder cane (unfortunately) ...
 
GFS really backed off some on the 00z and 06z with the reinforcing front next week. Crazy how it was locked in for several days. Hopefully it goes back to it. Just doesn’t look near as potent anymore.
 
Morning lows staying close to 70° the past few days here. I'm ready for this to end.

The good thing is this has been a dry heat; we've been getting into the 60s at night. But this is still bull^%$# for October.
It was 70 here this morning, DP 69 sorry nothing "dry heat" about that.... I had sweat pouring off of me after my run as if it was the middle of July.
