wisconsinwx Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Anyone know if St Louis has ever gone the whole month of September without a sub 80F high? They have a shot at doing that, pending the next few days with projected highs around 80. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 15 Septembers (records back into the 1870s for St. Louis) have failed to have at least one day with a high in the 50s or 60s, a stat which surprised me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louisville has had 17 days in the 90’s this month, with the rest in the 80’s. Only one day (7th) had a lowly high of 80. Also, no measurable rain for the month, thus far. Louisville has never had any month on official record without recording measurable rain. It’s a rapidly expanding drought in the lower OV with no serious relief in sight. Very high wild-fire danger, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torchageddon Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I'm pleasantly surprised by how today turned out, all that heavy rain is way to the north so no washout. My temps are also 4C higher than predicted as a result so another hot one for September! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackstraw Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Hoping we get something tonight. It's parched around here. Any exposed bare ground looks like a dried lake bed. No measurable precip locally for almost the entire month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the southern half of IN, southwest OH, and all of KY are experiencing extreme dryness right now. The only thing keeping this drought from being far worse right now is the fact the first half of the year was very wet. But even with that, if this dry pattern continues deep into October, most of the region will fall into severe short-term drought status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartman Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Managed to hit 90 for at least one more time for this year after being 89'd the past couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackstraw Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 This is getting ridiculous. The N part of this front is falling apart as it comes through this area. This is like the 3rd one over the last 3 weeks where the precip went N and S of here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchaumburgStormer Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 After days of LOT pounding the “heavy rain and severe flooding” drum (and more recently the severe potential drum); I ended up with a less than impressive .88” yesterday. The sump pump didn’t even fire up. Looking forward to some nice temps this week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But either way, they should end up blowing past the old lowest high of the month of 73. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went (10) full weeks w/o meaningful qpf at my place. Cells would miss me by a few miles in any direction including firing just east. Talk about a frustrating summer with a local drought island and staring at my brown lawn for week after week! Damn near got whiffed by this "heavy rain event" as well. This has been prevalent since Feb's snowstorms had a sharp cut-off right thru here. This pattern needs to die.. 51 minutes ago, King James said: Came here to see if anyone mentioned how awful the forecasting was for this one You can say that again!

Guest ovweather Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Louisville received a soaking 0.04" of rain overnight, keeping this month from going into the record books with a big goose egg for precipitation total. Still on track for the driest (and hottest) September on record (record is 0.12" in 2010). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soybean fields around here are crazy. Crops that are in the lowest parts of the field are full green and growing, The others are so brown and dry they're ready for harvest, not to mention they're less than a foot tall. You can see it field after field. During a wetter period the ones that are doing good would be stunted and visa versa. Corn crop is very noticeably short and stunted. My yard was wet at 5:30 this morning when I got home it was bone dry again. Tree's taking it hard too, the early turners are going straight to brown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted September 24, 2019 Author Share Posted September 24, 2019 Well, STL squeaked out 80 right on the nose, so the streak continues. Could be threatened again this week (Thursday?) but it lives on for now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted September 24, 2019 Author Share Posted September 24, 2019 STL has been stuck at 79 because of clouds. Still a short window of opportunity to push out an 80 but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
