Marion_NC_WX Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 September...the month of transition. Saying good bye to the heat of summer and hello to the cool winds of fall. I'm hoping we'll have at least one tropical threat this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lookout Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 September...the month of transition. Saying good bye to the heat of summer and hello to the cool winds of fall. I'm hoping we'll have at least one tropical threat this month. I've pretty much lost any hope for that here because it seems to have gotten so rare (although it could be a misconception on my part which larry could clarify. With all the fronts/troughs becoming more frequent, it's likely any storms that form out in the atlantic will go into central america or out into the atlantic. The exception being if something forms in the gulf. I know there are exceptions but it's hard not to feel this way. I know one thing, ever since isasc's path changed course into the ms valley, there sure hasn't been anything to talk about. I'm drying for something interesting...whether it's rain, a TC, or cold/cooler weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 On the bright side, the mystical, magical 540 line makes a brief appearance on the maps on the 06z run this morning, dipping down into upstate NY at the end of the run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I've pretty much lost any hope for that here because it seems to have gotten so rare (although it could be a misconception on my part which larry could clarify. KATL was heavily affected by five TC's (five ~3"+ and four 5"+) within the period 9/04-7/05, which is unpredented since records began. Also, three in one month! KATL was also hit hard twice in the 90's: Opal and Alberto. KATL has had seven TC's produce ~5"+ since 1994 or one every three years. KATL has had 15 of these since 1879 or one every nine yrs. So, way over climo since 1994 overall. Since 04-05 for ATL 2"+: -2.56" Humberto 07 - 2.12" Fay 08 - 4.87" Ida 09 So, we've had a lull since 09. But this is under three years and it is just after an incredibly active 2004-09. KATL has had over 40" from TC's (direct) since 2004! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nchighcountrywx Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Ready for drier cooler weather and hopefully the first upslope snow next month in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Ready for drier cooler weather and hopefully the first upslope snow next month in October. I second this! Well we have just had a big strom roll in and cool things off finally today. Some narly looking clouds rolled in right before the rains hit. Very heavy rain atm. Hoping to get some rains from the remnants of Isaac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithiaWx Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I'm up in Lexington va right now. Very humid at the moment. It was very cool last night at around 2700 feet on the way up here. Had the windows down and it was really refreshing. Not so now... feels like atl did yesterday when we left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Maybe some homebrew? Snipped from RAH this morning... IN ADDITION...MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGESTING AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE LINGERING OFF THE GA-SC COAST THU NIGHT-SATURDAY . IF THIS OCCURS...THIS LOW WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED FOR POSSIBLE SUB-TROPICAL DEVELOPMENT DUE TO ITS PROXIMITY TO THE GULF STREAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metalicwx366 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 RAH has been mentioning this for the a few AFD's now. Isaac remnants? Yes thats what I was wondering. If they would keep it named Isaac if it did develop or go with Michael? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion_NC_WX Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 RAH has been mentioning this for the a few AFD's now. Isaac remnants? There's an upper low East of the Bahamas retrograding...I think that would be the origin of a sub-tropical system, not Isaac. http://www.goes.noaa.gov/GSSLOOPS/ecwv.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Well, the first decent chance at some rain today washed out about 8 miles to the West. We did hear 2 rumbles of thunder, however!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshetley Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Well, the first decent chance at some rain today washed out about 8 miles to the West. We did hear 2 rumbles of thunder, however!!! The same thing happened here. No rain in 2 weeks. I'm going to say that my area stays dry indefinetly unless a tropical system comes up from Florida. Thought sure we'd see rain an hour ago but it split and anything headed for this area is quickly dying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Same deal - then ours went warned for hail & wind once it left the county. They've upped the chances of showers/storms to 80% now, and I'm proudly representing the other 20%!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LithiaWx Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Has anyone else noticed the early coloring falling of leaves this year? Early fall perhaps? Valkhorn and i both reported similar observations in the winter outlook thread. I saw it in northeast tn and southern Virginia in particular.

dsaur Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 I'm about to get hammered. Dark as night, Warnings issued. Hope it happened. Sitting here watching Isaac spin in some northwest rains to north of Atl. Patiently hoping some of that moves in here, if Isaac can just drop down a little more I've gotten 1.3 out of him so far, and sure would like to get another inch or two, before he's gone in a couple of days.

dsaur Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Way to go, Burns!! I've got the rain train from Isaac reasonably near my door step now, finally. I'm temped to stay up for it...to get in practice for sleet/snow later Looks like it could dump some pretty good rains, if it doesn't dry up before it get here Looks solid for now back in Ala. but the Haarp rain evaporator on the Ala line has been active this year.
