    Holy cow it’s raining. Even a couple rumbles of thunder!

    I can only imagine what is was like in Two Harbors. Are there any spotter reports up there? You were just about ground zero.

    The annual mentions of Halloween 1991 have begun. If there was one historic storm I could experience that might be it.

    Appreciate the kind words. I hold myself to the same standard as others in this subforum especially @michsnowfreak so my crappy iPhone 8 pics aren’t up to snuff. Another dry frontal passage this evening. Gusty NW winds and rapidly falling temperatures. Back to autumn.

    I’ll note, the large Swamp White Oak outside our house went from mostly green to post peak in 4 days. Yesterday it was peak color and today brown and dropping leaves. Trees aren’t holding the color as long this year and dropping leaves rather quickly. 84 here this afternoon. Yes i am awful at taking pictures.

    I’ve got photos from last year of my kid trick or treating in 2” of snow. This year we will bust out the Hawaiian Leis.

    They seem a bit duller, leaves just drying out and turning brown quicker, but we are at peak so colors are still magnificent.

    81 today. Just a few degrees shy of the record of 83. Every few days I like to throw it out there that Minneapolis has seen 0.06” of precipitation since August 30th

    Squeezed out a Trace of precipitation overnight. Can’t believe there are more 80s on tap here Sun/Mon. Record highs very much in play. Summer continues.

    Overnight low of 34 in Minneapolis. 28 at the Anoka County airport in the suburbs. Precipitation chances look minimal through the end of the month.

    My parents live in a townhome in Highland Park a little over a quarter mile from the lake. Dad just sent me a picture of some frozen stuff that fell there this morning. Cloudiness prevented us from dropping below 36 in Minneapolis last night.

    Low of 35 at the airport. Freeze across the suburbs. Heavy frost.

    By November I’ll be hoping it’s frozen, but anything helps at this point. We had a few sprinkles today but nothing measurable. Felt like a true autumn day, temps in the lower 50s and gusty winds taking lots of leaves off the trees.

    How’s it been in Detroit? Minneapolis has seen 0.06” since August 30th. Might have two record dry months back to back.

    I live in light pollution abyss, in between downtown and the airport only 1 mile to my south. Nonetheless I could see a faint naked eye Aurora in my backyard and things were vivid through a camera lens. Great night, must have been epic away from the city

    Looks like the CME may be arriving soon. Bz has gone quite negative and proton flux is way up.

    First freeze of the season in the point forecast for Monday night.

    The UHI wins again, MSP only made it down to 44. There was patchy frost in the suburbs this morning.
  19. OrdIowPitMsp
    This is likely the most exciting weather locally for the next week+ Dewpoint down in the 20s. Widespread frost possible outside the metro. Let’s see if we can break 40 tonight.
  20. OrdIowPitMsp
    Another dry frontal passage. Zzzzzzz….
  21. OrdIowPitMsp
    Tonight is the night. KP never really got above 3 last night.
  22. OrdIowPitMsp
    Not sure it will be better then the epic showing in May when we had multiple X-class CMEs impact Earth. We shall see, space weather can do funny things sometimes. I’m planning on going out to my usual spot tomorrow night.

    Today was the first day that felt truly autumnal. Cloudy, mid 60s and a nice breeze. Not going to last though, warm and dry is the continued theme. 0.06” since August 29

    What I think is significant and makes September 2024 really stand out, is all the other months were during the cold season when plant life was dormant.
  25. OrdIowPitMsp
    MSP will finish off September with a paltry 0.06” of precipitation. Right back into drought we go. Was any first order station in the region drier?
