It's actually sad (at least to me). I go back to the easternwx days. Then when that stopped I was one of the first to join americanwx. For many years it was a great site; especially when Robert was posting. We would have Burger do the play by play of the model runs and pack would cause some kind of controversy (..anybody hear from him?). The last couple of years saw a lot of folks drop off. It's now only a shell of its former self. But like I said, it's nice to see a lot of you from that time over here.

You ain't kidding; seeing the posters here has been like a trip down memory lane or at least in my case, faulty memory lane.
Looking forward to the brief cool down later this week; love this time of year sans hurricanes.
The only good thing, it shows the dew points staying relatively low (50s to low 60s). I can take warm weather as long as it's not too humid. Of course precip is another thing (very little over the SE the next two weeks).
Yep, October is usually perfect. Great (window opening) temps and you don't have the pollen like in April (the other great month). But it can be dry (I think it's the driest by average).
You aren’t kidding there and the Euro/EPS is a nightmare. In fact one of the ugliest set of runs I’ve seen for this time of year. Drought will be a key word if they verify.
GEFS shows little relief after this mid-late week cooldown event. We're in it for the long haul. Let's see if we can have an even later last 90F day than last year (Oct 6)
EDIT: upon more detailed inspection, its not total scorch. Largely 3-5F above average for this run, at least.

It would be crazy if October ends up hotter than July. Has that ever happened?
A hell of a paradox, eh?

Yeah and that little mid late week cool Down... not looking as promising as it was now...
Yeah, this is worse than bad. Sucks to have yet another blowtorch fall. Though, the next couple of days will be nice.
This is just getting us ready for winter. Though, it won’t be in the 80’s this winter...I hope.
What's it gonna take to get a pattern flip?

Great... another Dec 2015.
Patience, we have been on a streak of AN falls, the last BN fall I remember was in 2009. Maybe this is a new norm and we should just accept it. No coincidence that we are on a streak of AN winters.
A miracle! This seems to have been going on for years!
Speaks for itself.
There's more mid-level moisture/clouds today, mainly in the NE part of the metro. That may cap the high temperature potential slightly.
EDIT: RIP Newnan though (with mainly clear skies and the worst of the drought conditions).

6z GFS really wasn't terrible to me outside of the dryness factor. It's largely warmer than average but at least the dew points aren't high.
too bad it's probably wrong...

95 at Birmingham at 11am which is 5 degrees warmer than at 11am yesterday. They made it up to 98 yesterday.
