T. August Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Warm start, but maybe a cool shot during the second week? I'm basing this off of the CFSv2 and GFS, so probably not going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Warm start, but maybe a cool shot during the second week? I'm basing this off of the CFSv2 and GFS, so probably not going to happen. It looks close on the means but hard to say until we get closer. Looks like a pretty good boundary setting up with good temp gradient and good orientation for some wet and potentially stormy weather for someone. Pretty far out there to overthink though. The lower heights remain centered further west than they have most of summer so any anomalous cool shot would be short lived unless the lw pattern shifts a good bit. Euro weeklies have been showing an above normal temp regime overall for most of September. Average highs will be in the 70's in a couple weeks so warm isn't really that warm either way.

das Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 85.4F / 71F, at the noon hour in Clarksburg. That was a nasty run I just returned from. I'm thinking September will have more 90F days than August by the end of today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StudentOfClimatology Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Just came back from a walk with the gf. All I can say is thank goodness this pattern didn't visit us in mid-July, or we'd be 100/80 right now Also took pics of the storm damage from yesterday. A lot of big limbs down, but it seems trees have been darwinized for the most part as the damage was less this go around despite the stronger winds this go around Currently 85/78 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudentOfClimatology Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Those dews are ridiculous. Only 84/73 in my spot. Where in DC are you? My station has been suspiciously high with the dews this month, though could be a product of the dense vegetation along the nearby potomac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Storms forming just to my east. Bright sun here. i went outside for about 3 minutes earlier and came right back in. It's an absolute furnace. The air is barely breathable without gills, yet the skies are deep blue. Curious why they are not hazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Starting to rumble. Looks like a similar path to yesterday and most of the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchnick Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 was in HGR and vicinity today upper 70's and nice on the mtn. tops, but the valley was warm, humid and rainy at times all in all, a decent Labor Day weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arlwx Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Finally a decent shower in the area, visibility under a mile. This almost looks like the short sharp shower coming back down I-70 about noon. Ok, how did it follow me? Seriously, I'm glad of the fail. I have a tree developing widowmakers, time to get tree company estimates before another derecho. Edit: back to blue sky and a squirrel on the neighbor's roof looking for windfall.

CAPE Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Summer finally decided to show up. This is probably going to be the longest stretch of warm/hot and uncomfortably humid weather we have had all summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudentOfClimatology Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Has anyone had to drive on River Road just past Western Ave on the MD side? They've got these giant steel plates all over the road and when you couple that with rainfall it's asking for trouble. I end up fishtailing trying to avoid the dude in front of me who's doing the same thing...end up hitting the curb and blowing a hydraulic pipe or something because now my steering is all fooked up. What a terrible setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T. August Posted September 2, 2014 Author Share Posted September 2, 2014 Tonight may become the warmest of the year for some locations. I believe my highest low was last night at 74.

EastCoast NPZ Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 90F today, and not a drop of rain. In fact, barely any clouds at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
high risk Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 some small and isolated but apparently heavy showers have erupted across the area, mainly on the north side of DC. thought for sure that we were done for the day - not sure what the trigger is. and the 00z is now much faster with the progression of the front Tuesday and brings a squall line through here in the early evening hours (shows up nicely on the 4 km nest). This is a change from previous runs which had a dying line arriving several hours later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dailylurker Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I also thought we were done with the storms. Suddenly heard a loud rumble of thunder. I went outside and was surprised to see a nice storm just to my north (as usual). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
