Friday is looking like a lot of people get a shower or two for many, especially out SD’s way!
 
Tiny bit of good news. KATL may not quite reach the mid 90s the rest of the month as it may stay at 93 and lower. We'll see. Regardless, 91-93 the next 9 days is ridiculous!
 
KATK is now at 82.2 MTD, which is only 0.1 under the hottest June on record (1952) and 2nd to Sept of 1925 for the hottest Sept! They should end up near 82.2 based on current projections.

1925 - hmmmm - no mass of people, no asphalt, no airport, no SUV's; 1952 - still a little sleepy southern town with a rail station and a small landing strip on a farm ... hmmmm ...
 
KSAV had a record breaking high today of 98, which obliterated the old high of 95! Only one day after today on record back to 1873 was this hot, 98 on 9/28/1986! Also, today’s high was the hottest since all the way back on August 10! Are we headed toward autumn or am I mistaken?

Yeah we will probably go straight into winter and then have “fall” weather mixed in occasionally.
 
Dang, never heard of "flash drought" before..... although I'm sure some would argue they've been in a drought for sometime, seems a cop out for them to finally upgrade the area??

From US Drought Monitor:
Triple-digit daytime highs and pronounced short-term rainfall deficits (60-day rainfall totaling less than 40 percent of normal) heightened evapotranspiration rates and soil moisture losses, resulting in quickly escalating drought impacts (often referred to as a “flash drought”.) It should be noted that “flash drought” impacts often materialize more quickly than the precipitation data indicates due to the heat.
 
06z GFS keeps the SW half of the region (GA / AL/ N. FL) above average through the week after next, as the cold front stalls to the NE.

So much for a colorful fall. Leaves will be going straight to brown this year.

The weather people around here are hyping great fall color because of the drought, and the forestry people from Clemson, are where they get this from! SMDH

I'm pretty sure they know more about the subject than you do. Don't worry thought. Clemson will clean that UNC clock this Saturday. ???
 
Most of N and C GA is 3-6 hotter at 1 PM today vs 1 PM yesterday. New high temp. records will be set. As a matter of fact, KATL at 1 PM has already tied the record high of 90!
 
Birmingham has been 90 or above 98 days and counting this summer. Already 92 at 11am. Forecast to be mid to upper 90’s for the next week.
 
91 right now. record 95, i'm guessing we don't get there as we've got some intermittent clouds now

3 PM
- KATL 94, which is 4 hotter than the old record of 90
- KMCN 101, which is 5 hotter than the old record of 96 and is the hottest on record so late in the season
- KSAV 97, which is 2 hotter than the old record of 95

I guess some clouds are sitting over Newnan now, because it dropped back down to 93*F.

And *WOW* at 101*F in Macon...

At 4 PM, KATL and KMCN cooled slightly from 3 PM but KSAV rose to 98! Also, Augusta rose to 97, meaning a new record high!
 


And the second tweet in the thread says this is the second hottest day this late in the year. Columbia hit 101 on 10.05.1954.
 
95 @ GSP, all those big storms in TN will cool me off!??
 
Today's high of 95*F at ATL not only shatters the previous daily record of 90*F set in 1986, but now 2019 ties with 1925 for the most 95*F+ days in the month of September.
