Looks like they had a 15min jump to 101-103F that looks a little fishy, but they were 99-100F either way. 100F at Huntsville too. That's deep summer nonsense.
Birmingham had never recorded over 94F in October and in the first 2 days put up a 99F and a 103F.
BHM 103F (old 94F mult dates)
BNA 99F (old 94F 10/1/1953)
CLT 99F (old 98F (10/6/1954)
DCA 98F (old 96F 10/5/1941)
BWI 98F (old 97F 10/5/1941)
RIC 98F (99F 10/6/1941)
EWR 96F (old 93F 10/5/1941)
ATL 96F (old 10/5&6/1954)
LGA 95F (old 93F 10/5/1941)
Couldn't the ceilometer detect the fractional smoke layer a bit away from the station while the forward scattering vis sensor sees nothing between the beam emitter and the receiver?
Nice color up here from the ash, maples, and birches. Swamp maples are losing leaves and the red maples I've seen seem to be a hair ahead of the sugars. Honeylocust are fairly yellow too. The oaks are showing some hints of color, but nothing big. Haven't really seen any brown leaves here.
They have it in the center of grass about as best as they can given the runway setup. You have to be able to run power underground to it too.
