donsutherland1 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 A cold front was moving across eastern Long Island early this evening. Behind it, much of the week will feature refreshing temperatures and low humidity. Temperatures will mainly top out in the middle and upper 70s. Overall, the first week of September will likely wind up somewhat cooler than normal. A ridge in the West, trough in the East pattern could persist into the second week of the month allowing for more cooler than normal days. As a result, parts of the West that just went through their hottest summer on record could remain abnormally warm through the first half of the month. Just today, Blythe, CA reached 110° for the 69th time this year. That broke the record of 68 days that was set in 2020. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -0.3°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was 0.0°C for the week centered around August 21. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.35°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged 0.00°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely evolve into a La Niña event during the fall. The SOI was +21.34 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +0.914 today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He Hath Loosed the Fateful Lightning: The Battle of Ox Hill (Chantilly), September 1, 1862. 1869: Cleveland Abbe issued the first Weather Bulletin for the city of Cincinnati, Ohio. It contained a few observations telegraphed from distant observers and the “probabilities” for the next day. The bulletin was written by hand. 1894 - A forest fire driven by high winds burned down the town of Hinkley, MN, killing 418 persons. (David Ludlum) 1894: The Great Hinckley Fire, which burned an area of at least 200,000 acres or perhaps more than 250,000 acres including the town of Hinckley, Minnesota occurred on this day.

(David Ludlum) 1961: An F4 tornado traveled through parts of Butler and Bremer Counties in Iowa. Unfortunately, there is limited information in the Storm Data entry about this event. Per Thomas Grazulis in Significant Tornadoes, the tornado began NW of Dumont and ended NE of Horton. Several farms along the path were "leveled". It was reported at one farm that fruit jars were "sucked out of the basement" after the house was swept away. There were 7 injuries reported with this event and zero fatalities. 1974: Lt. Judy Neuffer became the first female to fly a Hurricane Hunter aircraft through the eye of a hurricane. 1979 - A home in Centerville TN was hit by lightning and totally destroyed.

Six cities reported record low temperatures for the date, including Indianapolis IN with a reading of 44 degrees.

(The National Weather Summary) 1988 - Thunderstorms produced heavy rain in the Upper Mississippi Valley. Ely, MN, was drenched with three inches of rain in two hours, and pelted with one inch hail. The heavy rain flooded streets and basements, and the high water pressure which resulted blew the covers off manholes. (The National Weather Summary)(Storm Data) 1989 - Thunderstorms developing ahead of a cold front produced severe weather in Oklahoma during the late afternoon and evening hours. Thunderstorms produced hail two inches in diameter west of Arapahoe, and wind gusts to 70 mph at Luther and south of Harrah. Early morning thunderstorms over Indiana drenched Kokomo with five to eight inches of rain, and spawned a tornado which injured three persons at Bruce Lake. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 2017: The temperature at Downtown San Fransico reached 106° setting their all-time record high. The previous record was 103° on June 14th, 2000.

doncat Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 With a mean temp of 76.5° met summer at my station was the 2nd warmest in 47 years, beaten only by 2010. June was warmest on record, July tied for 5th warmest and August wound up normal. Rainfall of 13.91" was right around normal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SACRUS Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 Mostly sunny forecasts should materialize in the afternoon otherwise anything but with mostly cloudy 70 / 55. Near 80 / low 80s today. Dry and great stretch of weather a bit below normal upper 70s / low 80s with much onshore E/ENE flow. Next trough comes in for the coming weekend and it looks like a cloudy perhaps rain each day but many days to track that. Looks overall warmer once towards mid month, before that heat is capped west under strong ridge there and troughing into the MW/Northeast. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANDA Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 13 minutes ago, SACRUS said: Ridge west - ridge north - trough underneath into the MW/Northeast This pattern could potentially make for some TS/H landfalls in the U.S. *IF* something would get going. Clearly there are issues with the ongoing season. The big numbers are failing and if this continues much longer the high ACE numbers could be in jeopardy as well. Still, it only takes one and that is by no means off the table at this point. Next 7 days and maybe 10 look rather quiet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 Canadian high pressure should dominate this week with good radiational cooling in the outlying areas. But it appears that we are back to the measurable rain on weekends pattern. Looks like the frontal passage this past weekend will occur again next weekend. Comfortable temperatures and humidity running below average for early September. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 A comfortably warm day with low humidity is concluding. More such days lie ahead. Much of this week will feature refreshing temperatures and low humidity. Temperatures will mainly top out in the middle and upper 70s. Fair weather should persist through Friday. Showers are possible on Saturday. Overall, the first week of September will likely wind up somewhat cooler than normal. A ridge in the West, trough in the East pattern could persist into the second week of the month allowing for additional cooler than normal days. As a result, parts of the West that just went through their hottest summer on record could remain abnormally warm through the first half of the month. As extreme heat spreads back into the Pacific Northwest this week, Portland could tie or break its record for latest 100° day on record. Salem will likely reach 100° on one or two days, which would break the annual record of 7 100° or above days that was set in 1988. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -0.5°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.2°C for the week centered around August 28. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.35°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.07°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely evolve into a La Niña event during the fall. The SOI was +9.03 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +0.471 today.
