MountainMarvel Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Awoke to 33 degrees at 7:30. Ice on the car. Didn't expect this.... Glad I brought the plants in on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevinhmd Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Close but no cigar. You're at around 2000' right? My guess is you hit 36. 32.7 this morning! So close! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandymanColumbusGA Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Got down to 48 in Columbus but Fort Benning bottomed out at 39! Got to love being away from population and having a sensor in a valley! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmersonGA Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 36 this morning. It was 38 when I left and I couldn't see any frost. Maybe some on the roofs later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lookout Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 36 this morning. It was 38 when I left and I couldn't see any frost. Maybe some on the roofs later. 36 here this morning as well. No frost in the yard or on the cars, but the usually colder lower and protected parts below the house had a little bit. Not bad for oct 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithiaWx Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 36 this morning. It was 38 when I left and I couldn't see any frost. Maybe some on the roofs later. 45.3 this morning at the house, Dobbins came in at 44. The contrast between me and you is a prime example of the heat island.... I'd say we are no more than about 20 miles away from each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say we are no more than about 20 miles away from each other. Not much asphalt my way and I live in an elevated valley surrounded by small mountains. I'm set up for some good radiational cooling. If I had a thermometer in my lower yard I bet I could knock off another degree or so but that's too far for a remote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gastonwxman Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Bottomed out at 37 for the low! A cold start to the day and up to 69 for the high with a 35 DP. Perfect day to rake the leaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithiaWx Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I think we can safely say Atlanta will not hit 90 again this year. The record from 1980 remains but was tied this year. 90 days of 90+ heat in 1980 and now 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoothillsNC Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 39 degrees here this morning, with frost on many of the roofs around here. I'm happy with how the GFS showed this setup 7 days out and never wavered, including the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wx n of atl Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 42.5 was the low... no 30s yet.... must say these afternoons temps have been awesome! great time of year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCSNOW Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Looks like a long stretch of indian summer weather is ahead. Maybe we can get some moisture back in here early next week. All that rain and the cold dry low dp's with wind have completely dried the topsoil back out again. Seems the models say we will have to wait until atleast the second half of October for our next shot at below normal temps, which is to be expected climo wise.

dsaur Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Hope some rain appears here. I haven't done as well as many of you. Barely 2 3/4's over a month and a half stretch. The two inches I got recently made dead things come back to life, but they are all dead again. Even under the leaves is good and dry now. Got down to 41.6 this morning.

shaggy Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Anyone wanna take a shot at the weather for the weekend of the 15th?

POWERSTROKE Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 We had a nice steady rain last night for about 2-3 hours. A surprise but appreciated on all of my seeded lawns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Local Yokel Wx Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 35.7 and slightly dropping. Might bottom out at 34 or so before the sun hits the yard. Another frosty morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATL_Militarypolice Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 12Z GFS moves a tropical system from the GoM all the way to New England.... 0Z ECMWF was also in agreement with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATL_Militarypolice Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 12Z GFS moves a tropical system from the GoM all the way to New England.... FFC even mentions it in their afternoon discussion. MOISTURE THEN BEGINS TO SKIRT PARTS OF CENTRAL GA IN THE EASTERLY FLOW SUNDAY TO TUESDAY WITH ONLY LOW POPS ASSOCIATED. TROPICAL LOW PRESSURE FORECAST TO DEVELOP OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO ON TUESDAY BUT NOT YET FORECAST TO SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT CENTRAL GA. THIS WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED. HPC: INALLY...DAILY COORDINATION WITH THE NHC RESULTED IN AGREEMENT TO DEPICT A BROAD LOW OF POTENTIAL TROPICAL ORIGIN IN VICINITY OF CUBA/SOUTH FLORIDA FOR DAYS 6/7. ALTHOUGH SOLUTION SPREAD IS EXTREMELY HIGH WITH THIS POTENTIAL SYSTEM...CONTINUITY FOR ITS FORMATION FROM YESTERDAY'S MODELS IS GOOD WITH EVEN MORE DETERMINISTIC AND ENSEMBLE MEMBER SOLUTIONS NOW ON-BOARD. THE BROAD NATURE OF ITS DEPICTION IS DUE TO THE VERY HIGH SPREAD WITH WHERE TO POSITION THE LOW WITH THE FINAL PROGS REPRESENTATIVE OF A GFS/ECMWF ENSEMBLE MEAN BLEND. Hope it plays out, this looks like the next "best" chance majority of us can see some rain. In the mean time I'm looking forward to this up coming week of around average to slightly above average temps, and cool nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavarreDon Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 NWS-Tally has a pretty good write up about the Tropical system in todays AFD: .LONG TERM...(FRIDAY THROUGH NEXT TUESDAY). MAIN CONCERN IN THE LONG TERM PERIOD IS ONCE AGAIN FOCUSED AROUND THE POTENTIAL FOR THE FORMATION OF SOME SORT OF SUBTROPICAL LOW IN THE VICINITY OF FLORIDA. MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW A LACK OF RUN TO RUN CONSISTENCY...WITH THE ECMWF TENDING TO BE THE MOST CONSISTENT MODEL OVER THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS. IT SHOULD ALSO BE NOTED THAT THE ECMWF WAS ONE OF THE FIRST MODELS TO DEVELOP SUCH A LOW...AND FOR NOW IT SEEMS TO BE PRESENTING ONE OF THE MORE CREDIBLE SOLUTIONS. THE MECHANISMS FOR THE GENESIS OF THIS SUBTROPICAL LOW (AS FORECAST BY THE NUMERICAL MODELS) REMAIN BASICALLY UNCHANGED FROM LAST NIGHT. CONVECTION IS ONGOING IN FAIR ABUNDANCE ALONG THE QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT THAT IS DRAPED ACROSS THE BAHAMAS AND WSW TOWARDS THE YUCATAN STRAIT. THE TSTMS IN THE BAHAMAS AND FLORIDA STRAITS ARE ALSO IN THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF A 60-80 KT UPPER LEVEL JET THAT CURLS NORTH AROUND THE PERSISTENT UPPER LOW IN THE NE CONUS. THIS IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE IN SOME FORM THROUGH THURSDAY...WITH SLOWLY FALLING SURFACE PRESSURE AND MID-UPPER LEVEL HEIGHTS. BY THE WEEKEND MODELS FORECAST MORE SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO TAKE PLACE WITH A CLOSED SURFACE LOW DEVELOPING SOMEWHERE INITIALLY BETWEEN 20N AND 25N. THE AREA WILL REMAIN SQUARELY WITHIN THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF THE UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK...AND SEVERAL SHORTWAVES PUSHING INTO THE AREA WILL HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO A BROAD AREA OF LOWER HEIGHTS AND CYCLONIC FLOW IN THE MID LEVELS. BASICALLY THERE WILL BE A HANDFUL OF FACTORS FAVORING LARGE SCALE ASCENT AND THE MAINTENANCE OF ANY CONVECTIVE CLUSTERS. PINPOINTING THE AREA WHERE THINGS COME TOGETHER MOST FAVORABLY IS RATHER DIFFICULT AT THIS JUNCTURE. THE OVERALL FORECAST IS FOR THE GENESIS OF A SUBTROPICAL LOW THIS WEEKEND...WITH A SLOW MIGRATION TO THE NW AND EVENTUALLY NORTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Local Yokel Wx Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Got down to 38 this morning. Going to be scorcher today with temps in my spot hitting 80 or 81; above average for our area. Looking forward to watching the models over the next few days for the potential rain maker, even if its a ways away. Im bored with this dry and fair weather.
