Yeah ever since that stretch of ultra high humidity back in July it's been really comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dry slot or mixing issues to worry about. Only about 3 more months until go time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 My August rain total is 1.25". The dryness would be a much bigger deal if the month was hot, but the cool pattern helped. We hit 87 on August 2nd, but haven't gone above 83 since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Yeah this is the most smoke I can remember being present. Sterling is down to just 2.5 miles visibility. The sky here is completely milky white now. Really weird. Will finish August with 2.23" here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 On 8/23/2017 at 6:06 AM, michsnowfreak said: Oh its certainly possible. In fact, Detroits longest heatwave on record was Aug 24-Sept 3, 1953 with 11 straight days of 90F+ (10 were 95+ and the last two 100). Sept 15, 1939 also hit 100F. I just meant that based on the forecast, heat will be scarce, as the deeper we get into September, frost is more likely than heat, and there are no indications of any big warm spells on the way. As it was, heat was scarce over the summer, but it was overall a pleasantly warm summer. Actually, outside of the lack of storminess, few should complain as temps were a perfect compromise. Those who prefer the cooler summers had very few hot days to worry about, but those who like the heat had plenty of warm, sunny days to spend at the pool. And lest we forget, last year featured dewpoints in the mid 70s for a couple days in September (and temps in the 90s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Summer 2017 ended up being the 11th warmest on record for Cleveland (out of 147 summers). Considering 2016 was the hottest on record, it definitely skewed people's perspectives this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normal is the new BN in a warming climate I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
