73,50 dewpoint. Love my latitude and elevation. Meanwhile, it's 88,65 dewpoint in Augusta GA.
Is this serious? Thats like August heat!
I had 77.2F with a 60F dewpoint.

Closest TWC reporting to me is Roswell:
Augusta and Columbia never cease to amaze me.

Tell me about it. Spent 45 years near Columbia. That stretch of the I-20 corridor gets seriously hot. Columbia's official slogan is "Famously Hot". That should tell you something.
Hello there...
Isn't this fun to look at for highs October 18th...

Then you walk up from the dream...
Are these multiple gulf storms churning up enough water in the gulf to affect water temperatures? Any correlation to gulf temps and the southeast ridge? We know the warm Indonesian waters affect us, and obviously a blow torch Gulf Stream, but I wonder if a cooler gulf will dry us out and allow cooler temperatures.
GEFS finally has one!

OH SNAP
If it were to happen, 2020 would be the year.
Never seen snow in Chattanooga in October, but I have hiked up into an ice storm on Big Frog Mountain in Oct. Was 50 degrees and rain in Chatt, 38 at trailhead (2000 ft) and hit the sleet and freezing rain around 3000 ft. Pretty cool. Does happen from time to time.
Fire up the thread?
Check, please
Had the same experience at Clingman’s Dome one October. I’ve seen flurries on Halloween twice in the past 25 years but nothing more.
Yep, and remember what Sandy did up there last day of Oct 2012... 30+ inches above 5000 ft. Just a different world up there.

Ah yes, the cold and dry look... better get used to that one
My senior year at App State in 1996, Boone had 7 inches the last week in October. The other 3 years I saw flurries at least once during the month.
I'll take it. I remember when summer was coming back just a few days ago. I like chilly fall days and nights.
I think last year jinxed Chattanooga to be doomed to a cold snowless winter, since we got that wonderful happy accident 4 inches one February morning in an otherwise warm winter. Something like 2002-03.
