This is one of the driest airmasses we've seen in mid-September. Precipitable water, a measure of how much water exists throughout the depth of the atmosphere, is at the lowest levels locally observed during mid-September. The weather balloon over Charleston, SC earlier this morning measured about half an inch of water, less than one-third of what is normal this time of year.

This means no clouds today and large day-to-night temperature ranges.

The desert effect. I'll take it. Even later this week when RDU goes above 80 our nights will still cool into the 50s. by the way RDU got down to 48 last night.
