September weather discussion

Yeah yeah yeah.   But, the impetus there was "IF"

 

It didn't -- and actually, that MOS products busted too warm much of the season thereafter.   Not our fault.

 

That's actually a good point to consider for Wednesday.   Thing is, this not home grown heat ...  hmm

What a crappy Saturday its showing. I hope its sunnier so we get that warmer feel even with the crisp airmass.

Total shock going from today, to 90s in many spots back to an even colder airmass on the weekend. That back and forth pattern that has been advertised for a while now is coming to fruition. Even some hints at more warm weather next week.

Tuesday and Wednesday nights' minimum temps will be hotter than next Saturday's maximum temps.

I wonder if there's a such thing as a 'record roller coaster pattern'   ...like, greatest change per short period of time sort of deal.  I know in the high plains there's been so spectacular chinook attributed events.  Texas has blue northers that can wipe 60F off a temp in a matter of short hours.   And we've had some amazing BDs up this way..

 

But, frost to 97 to frost ...in New England?  huh

Leaves are def turning now. These last few days finally started the change. I'm sure trees are bare up in West Chesterfield

 

Yeah the swamp maples are getting those colors. Pete did his last fall cleanup, Rick's fields are dead from frost, and MPM is listening to his daughter's songs as he rakes in his shawl.

18z NAM tries to tickle 100°F in northeast Mass. now for Wednesday. Seeing a small area of 98°+ popping up. Certainly possible IF those +22 to +23C 850's were to verify.

I have a hard time buying the NAM solution. I was skeptical about what the Euro was spitting out initially a few days ago, but now that the GFS is on board, it's hard not to believe many in E MA will see at least 90F.

How about April 2000 (I think), going from 70F in ALB, playing soccer in short on Saturday, then 20s and over a foot of snow on Sunday...only to bounce back warm later that week.

March 2012 on Mansfield went from teens and snow, to a week of 70-80F with lows in the 50s, then it was snowing in the teens and 20s again like 48 hours after all-time March high temps.

I feel like Spring and Fall occasionally give us these wild swings as the seasons mingle together.

Maybe it was April 2000. I'm not sure. I remember there was one April when I was younger in northeast CT we had a day near 90 and within two or three days we had a frost with temps in the 30's.

Definitely April 2000...I'll never forget that storm. Largest of the winter and we weren't even under any watches/warnings when it started I think. From mid-70s to upper 20s and double digit snowfall.

Major Snow Storm

Sunday April 9, 2000

It was perhaps the cruelest twist of weather to affect the region during April 2000. A spectacular mid 70 degree day preceded the largest snowfall of the entire winter season in the Capital Region and the second heaviest all time April snowstorm on record. As if the snow was not bad enough, the magnitude of the storm came with very little warning. Forecasts on Saturday, the 8th, for the region had called for a period of rain changing to a brief period of snow through Sunday morning with only a couple of inches of accumulation expected mainly in the higher elevations.

I'll say this, the first half of September will be cooler than I originally thought. Although I didn't think torch, these sneaky cold shots are adding up. We will obviously torch big time Wednesday and even Thursday, but then go right back this weekend and again possibly next week. There are signs we may turn warmer after mid month, but it's a split flow look with high pressure nearby. Does not look torchy. I still think we eek out AN for the month for BOS, but time will tell. The other big 3 are near -1 for the month right now.

Not so crazy after all I guess
