It will mean that the leaves will be all brown and crusty instead of bright and vibrant. That could all change if 99L tracks to the west of FL and through N GA.. Would be a solid rain maker for most next week but who knows what is going to happen with that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of our worst droughts start in the fall and winter. It could be a rough time across the SE next summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true but it is looking more and more likely we are entering a very weak nina or even neutral winter... All it takes is one significant tropical system between now and the end of October to end any thoughts of drought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FallsLake Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 The PNA looks to be going positive, AO hanging around neutral, and the NAO should stay negative: http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/precip/CWlink/daily_ao_index/teleconnections.shtml Oh wait, this is August. It really doesn't matter Oh wait, this is the SE. It really doesn't ever matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nchighcountrywx Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Today's ECMWF Control Day 15 puts the Far East Atlantic disturbance into Charleston as a strong hurricane. Of interest only The GFS does also just a bit further south This is likely to be the season's largest potential threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All it takes is one significant tropical system between now and the end of October to end any thoughts of drought The problem is, is that no tropical systems will be moving into inland SC, NC, or GA though. The 18z GFS says much of the southeast gets .25 or less of rainfall through day 16 and I almost guarantee it's right. This fall is going to be like the fall of 2001, which was crazy dry over much of the southeast. Next summer will be unreal in the southeast I'm afraid and will be remembered forever. Look at most of CAL right now for what next summer will be like around here. 1993, 1986, 2002, 1999, 2007, and 1999 will not be mentioned again after next summer is over.

yotaman Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Looks like a very warm week ahead of us. Supposed to be near 90 from Tuesday until the following Monday. I hope this is a last hurrah for the heat and humidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toxictwister00 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I wonder if Atlanta will tie or break that record of 90 days at or above 90 degrees this summer that was set back in 2011. I think we're at day 74 or 75 now. We still have time, September can be pretty hot too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This coming week looks hot but the following week should be a little cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWNC2015 Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 This will have some affect on the downstream pattern for the US. I think the cold/even snowy north-west will turn milder and it will start to cool down east esp. Great Lakes once this thing merges and exits. For some in the South-East who have been near 90s and dry.....I think this means an increase chance of rain a day maybe two next week and temps in the 80s......with even upper 70s for non-mountain areas (Elkin).

Looks to heat up again next week after a cool down to the mid to upper 80s this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
