Pattern Swamptember 2021

I absolutely LOVE the first cold front of autumn here in southeast LA. Seeing the azure deep blue skies, with a few feathery cirrus clouds streaming high overhead. Feeling the cool breezes pulsing past, smelling that crisp, dry autumnal rarified air. All the wait through 6 months of sweat, humidity, burning heat, annoying insects, and the like... it all becomes worth it for the glory of the new season roaring in!

Yeah even if we do get somewhat hot again for a bit by the weekend or next week the end is definitely in sight. It just feels like we finally turned a corner for sure

Already down to 67 from 73. DP went from 69 to 63 in about 30 minutes. Can see the colder air spilling over in the upstate right now.

I got kicked off Mt. Mitchell one year in October because they were closing the Blue Ridge due to snow. Was hiking and the Park Ranger had to drive me down to my car.

I’ve been once in November. It was like 19 degrees on top, 50 in Asheville

The wife and I hiked to the top of Mt. Mitchell a number of years ago in June and witnessed rain mixed with wet snow at times, fantastic weather up there!

Fantastic!! I want to hike it one day, one thing is for sure, Im too chicken to drive down. I dont trust my brakes. Ive taken 2 cars to Grnadfather before and feel lucky to be alive. How long was the hike timewise?

The ones in the southern and western piedmont are moving NE. But as soon as anything gets on the doorstep of our zone, it starts moving due north or back building or dying out like there's a wall up.
