wxdude64 posted in Sep contest: Heading out of town for a couple weeks, here are my picks for October. DCA: -0.6 NYC: +0.4 BOS: +1.1 ORD: -0.9 ATL: -1.2 IAH: -0.2 DEN: -0.6 PHX: +1.8 SEA: -0.3 And my forecasts: Roger S ___ -0.5 _ -0.7 _ -0.9 __ +1.7 _ +0.2 _ +1.0 ____ +2.0 _ +2.2 _ +1.2

There are some encouraging signs. But I actually dropped by to remind NYC people to enter forecast contest on time.

Did Randy ever post about his experience in GA? I guess the worst of it went east of where he was (if he went)?

There is enough time to reach cat-4, I don't think cat-5 was ever a strong option. I will say cat-4 by 21z and either cat-4 to landfall or just back to top end cat-3 at landfall which I currently think will be 03z near St marks NWR to western Taylor co. Track will place western eyewall over TLH around 05z and very close to stormtracker's proposed location 09z and near or just east of ATL by 12-15z Friday. For a min pressure will go with 947 just before landfall. (935 is probably limit for min SLP) 40/70 I wanted to read your assessment but link was broken when I tried, this is perhaps why a post was deleted? Is my guess above close to yours? If not are you less intense and further east? That was my feeling as to bust direction, not stronger and not west of Carrabelle for landfall. Still 30% prob direct hit TLH.

Alberto (1994) dropped 24" rain in central GA. (near macon, severe flood damage) Will post on main thread also ... There is enough time to reach cat-4, I don't think cat-5 was ever a strong option.

Predict temp anomalies for nine locations (F deg relative to 1991-2020 averages) ... DCA _ NYC _ BOS __ ORD _ ATL _ IAH __ DEN _ PHX _ SEA Deadline is 06z Oct 1st wxdude64 entry is in Sep contest thread.

As to RI potential, 'cane is not quite totally past land interaction and situation will probably explode after 06z and in particular when center is between 25 and 27 N tomorrow. A lot more effective energy inflow can take place as it gets further from land and inflow is coming from tropical Atlantic with Cuba no longer a partial obstacle to inflow. That will soon be the case. I would look for steady pressure falls after 06z, just slight falls to then.

With regard to situation over GA now, a frontal boundary runs from about 30e ATL to s.w. GA and will become q.s. overnite into Thursday, as hurricane approaches it will be pushed back to the west 20-40 miles and will be focus of exceptionally heavy rainfalls in 10-15 inch range (closer to 5-10 inch warmer air mass over e, s GA). I think the forecast for ATL, CSG and over towards Warner Robins (where Stormtracker is going, Bonaire is a suburb) needs to be along lines of all hell will break loose later Thurs after intermittent heavy thundershowers now to 18z, intervals of torrential wind-blown rain, frequent lightning, embedded tornadic wind streaks with gusts to 100-120 possible (outside of those, 80-100). It will only die down a bit when remnant low gets past ATL. That frontal boundary is probably going to stall overnite and edge back west as 'cane approaches landfall. Temps will be 66-69F on west side and 77-81 on east side. Imagine also upsloping all of those frontal dynamics into southern Apps. Nasty.

Yikes, cane will be ramping and passing just to your west by 9 pm to midnite, I would not be too confident flight will take place, is it an airline or charter? I am no coward but I would seriously consider postponing/not going. 25% chance it goes a bit too far west to produce worst case conditions (which could be SSE 50G75, 6-8" of rain and local tornadic windstreaks).

Table of storms (two posts back) still needed to verify forecasts is updated for likely events taking Helene to major next day or so. Also Isaac now a TS (edit _ and now a 'cane, not progged to be very strong). Also we now welcome Joyce, predicted to remain a TS. At 10/6/2 season if 70% done will end at 13/9/3 so almost all forecasts need a strong OCT-NOV to stand any real possibility of contest success now. A 5/4/2 Oct brings it to 15/10/4 and a 2/1/0 NOV to 17/11/4, so even stronger actual results would be needed by most of us.

32" that s.b. 37"

Storm is near wtere Wilma set a record for rapid intensification in Oct 2005. Paths diverged afterwards (not expecting as fast RI this one, RI will be late Wednesday 26N or so)

I am expecting an over-performer (RI) and possibly cat-4 by 26-27 N (landfall 29N cat-3). East-west wobble factor (0.2-0.3 deg) is likely to play as max east displacements midnite, and max west mid-day, given moon's present orbital position. Strong n max declination peak at present will decrease over 3 days, it does add tidal range to coming period between F and new.

Final scoring for September 2024 scores are based on end of Sep anomalies in previous post.

Three forecasters tied for most correct forecasts (two): Roger Ramjet, WxDavis5784 and TSG. All three nailed IAD and RIC (101). Our consensus was also accurate for them. A few others got one of these locations correct. Nobody was exactly correct for DCA or BWI (104), closest calls being 1F for DCA (Jebman 105, Roger S 103), and also 1F for BWI (Jebman and WxDavis5784 both at 103F). On to fall and winter contests ... good luck !!!

Count is 6/4/1. Will probably be 7/4/1 soon if TD Seven is a named storm (later edit, TS Gordon). For now, table of "storms needed to verify" is based on 6/4/1, will re-edit if we are at 7/4/1. (table is two posts back now) ... Gordon's fate is not clear, may eventually become a weak 'cane. Table is now edited for 7/4/1 for now.

Daily records for NYC ... info is partly available in daily climate reports, but this log adds features like low max, high min, and 2d rainfall totals. For 2d rainfall totals, note, records indicated are for that day and previous day. In a few cases, previous day has no rainfall (*) and in a few other cases, it had all the noted rainfall (**) (e.g. Sep 8 1934 had all rainfall noted as 2d record ending Sep 9 1934). Also, note a few daily low min records have daily max in brackets if value was not itself a record low max. In Sep, only six days actually set both on same day -- three were tied (for low max record). ^ indicates a note below calendar with additional information. ===<<< SEPTEmBER RECORDS >>>=== Date ____ high max __ high min ______ low max ____ low min _____ 1d rain ____ 2d rain ___ also 1d, 2d Sep 01 ___ 97 1953 ____ 76 1898^_______ 59 1869 _____51 1869 _______ 7.13 2021 ___ 7.13 2021*__ 3.84 1927 Sep 02 ___102 1953 ____79 1898 _______ 62 1869_____51 1886 ________2.12 1899 ___ 7.23 2021 __ 3.88 2d 1927^ Sep 03 ___ 99 1929 ____ 78 1898 _______ 62 1935 _____50 1885, 93 ___ 3.32 1969 __ 3.44^1974 (0.18+3.26) Sep 04 ___ 97 1929^____78 1898 _______ 66 1984 _____47 1872, 83 ___ 3.48 1913 ___ 6.28 1969 (3.32+2.96) _ 3.48 1913* Sep 05 ___ 94 1985 ____ 77 1898^_______62 1926 _____51 1963 (63) ___ 2.45 1878 __ 4.14 1913 __ 2.80 1878 2d Sep 06 ___ 97 1881 ____ 78 1985 _______ 56 1963 _____48 1924 (69) ___ 3.26 2008 __ 3.54 2008 __ 3.22 2011 (1d) Sep 07 ___ 101 1881 ____ 79 1881 _______ 63 1877,88 _ 46 1888 ________ 2.07 1998 ___ 4.43 2011 (3.22 + 1.21) _ 3.26 2008** Sep 08 ___ 97 2015 ____ 76 2015 _______ 63 1918 _____52 1871 (65) ___ 4.86 1934 ___ 5.48 1934 __ 3.77 2004 (1d) Sep 09 ___ 94 1915 ____ 77 1884 _______ 61 1880,83 _ 48 1883 ________ 0.86 1902 ___4.86 1934** Sep 10 ___ 97 1931,83 _ 77 1884 _______ 62 1883 _____43 1883 ________ 1.80 2023 ___1.82 2023 __ (1.58 2015 _ 1d) Sep 11 ___ 99 1931,83 _ 78 1983 _______ 61 1876,1914 _43 1917 (62) _____ 2.90 1954 ___3.46 2023 _ 3.30 1954 _ 2.57 1882 (1d) Sep 12 ___ 94 1961 ____ 77 1895 _______ 62 1883 _____46 1917 _________ 2.35 1960 ___3.23 1882 (2.57+0.66) _ 2.66 1960 (2d) Sep 13 ___ 94 1952 ____ 75 1890 _______ 59 1965 _____46 1963 (65) ___ 3.94 1944 ___5.58 1944 __ 3.37" 1889 2d (1.89+1.48) Sep 14 ___ 93 1931 ____ 74 1947 _______ 60 1873 _____46 1911, 75 _____ 3.82 1944 ___7.76 1944 _ 3.10 1945 (1d) ^ Sep 15 ___ 92 1927 ____ 75 1931,2005 _ 57 1954 _____44 1873 (65) ____ 4.16 1933 ___7.00 1933 (2.84+4.16) Sep 16 ___ 93 1915 ____ 73 1903,2005 _ 60 1872 _____47 1966 (70) ____ 5.02 1999 ___5.44 1999 __ 4.38 1933 (2d) Sep 17 ___ 93 1991 ____ 77 1991 _______ 57 1945 _____45 1986 (69) _____ 3.37 1876 ___4.14 1874 __ 3.28 1874 (1d) Sep 18 ___ 91 1891 ____ 72 1905, 72 ___ 60 1875 _____44 1990 (61 17th) _ 3.92 1936 ___6.23 1874 (3.28+2.95) (7.09" 3d) Sep 19 ___ 94 1983 ____ 74 1906 _______ 51 1875^____ 44 1929 (62) ____ 4.30 1894 ___5.16 1894 __ 3.95 1936 (2d) Sep 20 ___ 93 1895, 1983_77 1906 _______ 59 1901 _____44 1993 (62 21st)_ 2.32 1989 ___4.21 1989 (1.89 + 2.32) Sep 21 ___ 95 1895 ____ 77 1895 _______ 56 1871 _____40 1871 ___________ 5.54 1966 ___ 5.74 1938 __ 4.05 1938 (1d)^ Sep 22 ___ 95 1895,1914_75 1895 _______ 55 1875,1904_41 1904 __________ 2.34 1882 ___ 5.64 1966 __ 3.55 1882 (2d) Sep 23 ___ 97 1895 ____ 77 1970 _______ 57 1963 _____41 1947 (60) _____ 8.28 1882 ___10.62 1882 __ 2.72 1919 (1d) Sep 24 ___ 91 2017 ____ 74 1970 _______ 52 1887 _____40 1963 (62) _____ 2.26 1975 ___ 8.30 1882 __ 4.56 1975 (2d) Sep 25 ___ 90 1970 ____ 71 1881,1970 __ 53 1879 _____40 1887 (63 26th) _ 2.36 1940 ___3.31 1975 __ 7.43" 4d total 23-26 1975 Sep 26 ___ 91 1881, 1970_74 1895 _______ 54 2000 _____42 1940 __________2.34 2008 ___ 2.87 1975 __ 2.35" 1991 (1.97+0.38) Sep 27 ___ 90 1933 ____ 75 1881 _______ 56 1893 _____41 1947, 57 _______ 3.13 1985 ___ 3.58 1985 Sep 28 ___ 88 1881 ____ 72 1891 _______ 53 1984 _____41 1947(61 27th) _ 3.84 2004 ___ 3.84 2004 * Sep 29 ___ 88 1945 ____ 72 1959,2015 _ 53 1888 _____42 1888,1914,42 _ 5.48 2023 ^___ 5.84 2023 _ Sep 30 ___ 89 1986 ____ 70 1959 _______52 1888 _____39 1912 (60) _____ 2.64 1983 ___ 2.64 1983 * __ 2.21 1920 (1d) -- - - - - - - - - - - - - -- NOTES in calendar above ^ 1st high min shared 1898, 1980, 2010, 2015 ^ 2nd, 3rd 1953 min 77, 77. also 75 on 3rd, 1973. ^ 2nd __ note also 3.00" 2-3 for 1899 ^ 3rd 2d rain 1969 3.45" (0.11 + 3.32) .01" less than 1974 2d. ^ 1st-7th hot in 1898: 93, 93, 93, 92, 90, 88, 88 (no records though, set or shared high min 1st-5th) ^ 5th high min shared 1898, 1907, 1985, 2018 ^ 14th 2d rain 1971 4.34 (0.58 + 3.76) ... 3d 12th-14th 6.10" ^ 19th min with record low max was 45 (one higher than daily low min) ^ 20-21 the 2d rainfall total occurred with stalled fronts associated with the "Long Island Express" hurricane, with rain on 19th added the three day total was 7.50" and a further 0.63" fell on 17th-18th. The heavier rainfall on 21st 1966 pushed the daily max of 4.05" out of the record column. The 1966 rainfall was not of tropical storm origins. The 2d total for 20-21 was 5.56" (only 0.02" added from 20th) which did not quite exceed the 2d total for 1938. ^ 28-29 4.68 2004 (3.84+0.82) and 28-29 another heavy 2d rainfall was 3.04" in 1907 (0.91+2.13). ^ 29 record rainfall before 2023 was 2.18" 1963 Many of the heavy rainfalls noted in August and September were associated with hurricanes or tropical storms moving up the east coast. The event on Sept 22-23 was a weak tropical storm (4 of 1882) (weak in terms of wind gradient) that dissipated near NYC on 23-24 Sept 1882. The event in mid-Sept of 1944 was the "Great Atlantic hurricane" which made landfall in eastern Long Island on the evening of Sept 14, 1944. The heavy rains of mid-Sept 1933 were associated with a stalled front and Hurricane 12 of that very active year (the "Outer Banks Hurricane") which passed southeast of the region on the 16th-17th. Records for 26-27 were set by Gloria (1985) which made landfall near Babylon NY just east of NYC.

Not a forecast but interesting ... winters of 1931-32 and 1932-33 were very mild and snowless. Winter 1933-34 was very cold and snowy. It would be a good repeat. (Dec 1933 and Feb 1934 extreme cold, Jan 1934 near average).
