I rely on autumn to provide me with some decent dry, warmish hiking weather...this year has been the most unusable of any of the last 40 that I have lived here. Almost enough to get me seriously thinking of relocating. The outdoors keeps me sane, if this is the new normal then I'll soon be running in circles yelling and waving my arms over my head.

There's no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes.

...except this 77/70 nonsense in mid-October, that's bad weather.

Models are slightly more northwest with the remnants of Michael for our area. We will still see some rain but the question is how much ?

euro is dry for most less than a half inch and it's mostly from the cold front-the direct impacts of the storm are well south and east....

Pattern completely reshuffles after this storm passes, much more fall like. It'll feel quite drastic compared to what we've been used to.

Troughing will still compete with WAR though, meaning we should see several rain chances. Would not be surprised to see heavier rainfall amounts with Michael's remnants.

GFS gets the Michael-associated rain shield pretty close, maybe 50 miles SE of Long Island last run. Can't rule out at all a bump north on that and a slower front. It'll be hauling though so flood concerns should be limited. Unfortunately NC/SC doesn't need another drop. 

Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised to see it trend north. There could also be some gusty winds (in the 30s) associated with it as it goes through extra tropical translation and the wind field expands.

Next 8 days averaging 63degs., but still about 6degs. AN.

Month to date is +8.7[69.1].    Should be +7.6[66.2] by the 18th.

The RWTT still shows no cooldown.   Just the second week of Nov.   The next 30 and next 90 are still a good 2-4degs. AN here.

69.5 here at 6am.

Meanwhile Cat4 Michael near 28.4N  86.4W, now.

Michael is coming right at the transition to more of an El Nino pattern. For October, this means the trough axis will gradually shift near the Great Lakes. May take a series of steps or fronts to battle against the WAR which has been so persistent.

The remarkable minimum temperature warmth continues. ISP is at +12.5 or a 61.8 average low temperature for the first 9 days of October. That is the average low temperature for September 6th.
