For now, staying in tropical (sub) for October posts, but first week of Oct looks interesting to me off the SE USA coast tracking northward ahead the next weekend cold front. No blatant signs but modeling does have low pressure strewing off the se coast USA and for me it's a worthy monitor for developing another significant rain event here Friday the 6th-Sunday the 8th...at least LI/CT.

 However, I continue interested in what will evolve off the se USA coast.  next week.  And, right now, one strong trough is forecast to evolve over the ne USA by the end of next weekend. It could easily draw at 6-18 hour swath 1.7" PW up here and depending on low pressure location provide more 1"+ rainfall.  Definitely different than the whatever amounts out there (multiple 6+?).

 

I've got to run but will be looking for CP 1 day top 10, with at least 5.7 for the calendar day as to be rerouted at 445P,  and the 24 18z-18z will be at least 5.7.

 

XMACIS says that's a top 10 daily at CP.

No…please no. ;)

Sun (10/1)  starts feeling like we are in a warm pattern/ridging and out of the coold/rainy "oasis". Still some NNE flow through the week but very warm air all around against averages.  80s for the warm spots (park may stay 5 - 8 degrees below other sites with the growth).    Peak warmth Wed - Thu (10/4).   

Trough into the GL/MW by the end of the week with front approaching Sat (10/6).   Cooler period 10/ 8 - 10/11 looks like frost in the mountains/NW section as currently projected.    Ridge into the NW pushes east by mud month and warmer one the other end of the middle 10/16 or so.  We'll see how dry the 10/1 - 10/15 period can remain - tendency is for hung up fronts and it wants to rain here.

Unbelievable. After several days of miserable skies and weather, as soon as the clouds clear, the smoke is back! I can't believe it's October and there's fires still raging in Quebec, arguably they never really got extinguished. Was hoping for a nice day with blue skies but that will have to wait :(

You can't make this stuff up!

 60  / 60 and last of the thin clouds moving ESE with bright sunshine in the next hour for most.  Dry / warm stretch and its needed deep trough into the west coast and ridge into theast.  Flow NNW today - Tue (10/3) with warm hghs near 80 / low 80s.  Warm spots could get mid 80s and cool/wetter spots  (Central park) may be stuck in the low - mid70s.  Mon-Tue and Fri (10/6) winds less onshore Wed / Thu highest 850 MB temps forecast with >16C but NNE flow.   

Trough digs into the GL/MW pushes east by Fri (10/6) and next weekend with next rain chances.  Cooler 10/8 - 10/13 -  frost or first freezes into the higher elevations and chilly 40s to the coast likely.  On the other side of mid October - looks near normal.

Historical:

 

1752 - The second severe hurricane in two weeks hit the Carolinas. The Onslow County Courthouse was destroyed along with all its records, and Beacon Island disappeared. (David Ludlum)

1890: The weather service is first identified as a civilian agency when Congress, at the request of President Benjamin Harrison, passes an act transferring the Signal Service’s meteorological responsibilities to the newly-created U.S. Weather Bureau in the Department of Agriculture. 

1893 - The second great hurricane of the 1893 season hit the Mississippi Delta Region drowning more than 1000 persons. (David Ludlum)

 

1893: On this day, the village of Caminadaville, Louisiana, was destroyed by a massive hurricane. Caminadaville was a vibrant fishing community in the late 19th century, located on Cheniere Caminada, adjacent to Grand Isle in coastal Jefferson Parish in Louisiana. It took five days for the news of this devastating hurricane to reach New Orleans.

 

1938: Grannis and Okay, Arkansas set an all-time high-temperature record for October for Arkansas with 105 degrees.

1977: While an F3 tornado traveled less than one-mile through Montfort Heights or the greater Cincinnati area, it destroyed 12 homes and damaged 15 others. There were 17 injuries.

1987 - A blast of cold arctic air hit the north central U.S. An afternoon thunderstorm slickened the streets of Duluth MN with hail and snow, and later in the afternoon, strong northerly winds reached 70 mph. Unseasonably warm weather continued in the Pacific northwest. Afternoon highs of 90 degrees at Olympia WA, 92 degrees at Portland OR, and 89 degrees at Seattle WA, were records for the month of October. For Seattle WA it marked the twenty- first daily record high for the year, a record total in itself. (The National Weather Summary)

1988 - Afternoon and evening thunderstorms produced severe weather across central Oklahoma and the eastern half of Texas. Thunderstorms in Texas produced softball size hail northwest of Nocona, and baseball size hail at Troy and Park Springs. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

1989 - Thunderstorms produced severe weather in the southeastern U.S. through the daytime and evening hours. Severe thunderstorms spawned eleven tornadoes, with seven of those tornadoes in Georgia. A tornado southwest of Moultrie, GA, killed two persons and injured a dozen others. Tornadoes also injured one person north of Graceville, FL, and two persons at Bartow, GA. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary)

The HRRR is one of the few models I know that takes into account the smoke in the column and the effect it has on surface warming. HRRR has us barely going above 70 today and tomorrow solely based on the smoke. Most forecasts have mid 70's for us on LI, I think we fall well short of that unfortunately. Struggling to make it out of the low 60's so far
