Pattern Scorchtember

Well, KATL had an unbelievable 98 today, which is 2 hotter than forecasted. That makes more history as not only is this still another record high, but also it was the 4th 98+ this month! There hadn't been even one 98 there in Sep. since way back in 1954! The last 11 days have had 95+ and the last 7 96+! No, I'm not on crack. These really happened.

Edit: 5 of the 7 hottest days this summer have been in Sep!
 
Starting to hear thunder from a storm to my east that is currently moving west. Last time I had rain was 8/27. Will this end my 17 day dry spell?

This may rank as one of the top 5 weather events in Atlanta history. Unbelievable.
 
If you haven’t seen the 18z GFS, consider yourself fortunate. Thank you SER can I have another.

Larry, Wait until you're doing the record string of lows, not only for KATL but for 2 points south ... :cool: ... it's coming ... someday ... ;)
 
More good rains tonight, thankful.

1.25”, 1.75” for the week.

Do we have any members from Kentucky yet? They have to be breaking records in Lexington as well as they have been well into the mid 90s.
 
Going to be an active night. Lightning Wilkes County storm coming from the east...weird direction.
 
Upstate SC is favored on the short term NAM. HRRR favors Wilkes and nailed the storm entering Wilkes now.

I saw you forecasting 90s till November in tropical thread. Cant beleive a drought snuck up on us without you forecasting it. How long is this one? Is it in its genesis, gonna roll into summer 2020

The high was 99*F here.

Opaque cirrus by mid-afternoon likely saved us from another 100*F day.
 
FFC has bumped highs into the low-mid 90s today through Wednesday, with a "cool down" to the upper 80s (87*F) by Thursday.

And the best part of their AFD:

"Tropical storm Humberto is a non factor for the weather over N and central GA."

In other words, moderate to severe drought conditions for the South ATL Metro continues:

Humberto is a non factor for the weather in GA ? So i guess the dry, hot weather is not related to Humberto?
 
Went and cut the grass this morning. Actually felt like fall. A good chunk of the trees have foliage on them, nice cloudy day with a cool breeze. Granted I live in the triad however I hope you all south 1-85 see some relief soon too. Though to be fair I saw mid 90’s yesterday and can’t remember the last time I’ve seen rain.

Whatever what's in the gulf may give me a little hope. Models have it moving west towards Texas/Louisiana coast then drifting back east. I hope it does because we need the rain

My trees are dropping tons of leaves already , due to drought stress! Fall colo should almost non-existent, no leaves will be left! Not a drop yesterday, today not looking good , then atleast 10+ more days with no rain

I highly doubt there’s any foliage or change yet it’s only September otherwise that would be pretty absurd. More likely than not that’s heat and drought stressed trees.

Pretty much all of NC except charlotte is out of this heat . Centered too far sw for us to truly be in it so we are lucky .
 
Weather.com has Nashville near 100 again on Monday. Even last September, at least the endless 90s were mostly the generic low 90s instead of upper 90s like we're having this year. :mad:
 
Yep grass is brown and trees are changing colors around here and falling, especially with a outflow boundary yesterday
 
Today officially snapped the 90*F+ streak at ATL, with only a high of 87*F.

Will have to wait until later this evening to see if an intra-hour 90*F happened here. We had several observations of 89*F and now it's down to 88*F.
 
No offense to BMX, but their record this summer on pop up storms has been pretty bad. I had a 50% chance today and didnt even see a decent updraft building.

And we fell short of 90*F.
