Looks like the recurve of the typhoon will translate into a pretty sizable fall storm with a brief cool down followed by possibly more storms. 

Like I said before, the typhoon recurve is really not doing much for us in this case.

The pattern change (with the introduction of a -PNA) has been underway in a large scale for several days now. And as I mentioned before, there really isn’t going to be any sort of cool down. Temps will continue to be above to well above average around here for the foreseeable future (through mid-month).

I suspect this trough could push further east and really cool us down for a couple of days before the next storm:ph34r:

Here's how the stations ranked last month. Some still out, while some with (M) still in the middle of processing. Pretty warm Sept. Generally above avg to well above avg with some near record/record readings. A couple top 20 cool min readings are in there too. Localized effects. Number of unique max temp readings per station avg in the low 80's, and min readings avg in the mid 70's so you can see about where they lie in the ranking.

Also included prelim anomaly chart, which I switched to a 1901-2000 baseline.

It was a warmer than average September at Detroit, tied for the 25th warmest on record, but no record highs were set, only a record cold Max of 53 on September 23.

It’s September in October this year.

Right.  I don't need it to be very cold this time of year...but some actual fall-like highs in the 60s and lows in the 40s would be nice.  ORD hasn't dropped below 50 for the entire season so far, and this should continue through mid-October.  That's crazy...it just doesn't feel right.  Very little color on trees so far...it's like Mother Nature still thinks it's September 15th.

The latest 30-year averages did suggest that somewhat.

April and May were slightly cooler while September and October were slightly warmer. 

I just told my wife yesterday that it seems that over the last few years the winter runs long with a short spring and summer runs long with a short autumn. Those 30-year averages kind of verifies that.
