Blizzard of 93 Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 I found the drought monitor posted yesterday in the NE thread. You will need to go to WV or Maine to see drought conditions now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was pre Ida though so I suspect they withdraw that one though the conditions in WV may not have improved enough to withdraw, unsure. Different kinds of droughts and an agricultural drought is only helped so much when 5" of rain falls in a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While my yard is as green as I've ever seen it, while I was mowing Saturday PM I was shocked by how hard the ground had become after 3 straight sunny days. I think the quarter inch of rain yesterday did as much if not more for my soil than the 7+ inches on Wednesday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimB Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Next week gets ugly on the EC. At least 3 days where reaching or exceeding 90 is very much in play. In mid-September. Hope it’s wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had what I thought was a beautiful spring this year; but generally speaking, seasons (to me) are becoming much more about extended cold in the spring and extended heat in the fall. That's nothing at all more than a perception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took your word for it as you are spot on with the model interpretations. MDT specific, its rare that we do not get one 90's day in Sept (though last year I think 85 was the highest if I remember correctly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 The NWS Zones are out through 7 days from now (Sept 13th) and using that along with predicted model temps, its possible MDT stays at or below normal every day of the first 13 days of Sept. Might be close a couple days to nudging slightly above but if they accomplish even 11 or 12 of the first 13, that is quite the nice streak.

Not taking time away from Labor day to study models but a quick peek at 2M temps on the 18Z GFS shows much above normal temps in the S/E next week so I am guessing much of the discrepancy is based on the advancement of that area (or lack of). I will take some Labor Day time if Blizz has any drought concerns. I can help him map out his plan of attack to keep the grass alive. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a near-perfect weekend on the weather front, as far as I’m concerned. Completes the trifecta of below normal holiday weekends this summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at LNS and York and it was not too far off. I am thinking some of the previous nights lows were a bit higher than modeled or forecasted due to clouds hanging on.
