madwx Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 A cool airmass will push into the northern half of the area this weekend. Looking like a few more chances of cool NW flow heading into the weekend after Labor Day. Before we know it we’ll be tracking some rainy and windy fall storms 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking like a few more chances of cool NW flow heading into the weekend after Labor Day. Before we know it we’ll be tracking some rainy and windy fall storms Yeah the next week to 10 days look like a pretty typical early September forecast. No complaints here at all. It'll be interesting seeing how the first part of fall evolves here, as in some ways it already feels like we made the switch from summer to fall conditions even before the heat of the last couple of days. Notably, even with the drier August we are still running at #5 YTD for precip, so it'll be interesting seeing if that continues or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocATL Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Wow the ensembles are demanding we keep the pools open past Labor Day. After this weekend’s taste of fall we return to summer. I guess we will see how things play out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earliest accumulating snow on record for Chicago. I was a student at Deerfield High School, and watched close to an inch fall throughout the day. Patches stuck around in shaded spots til the next morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly you really don't even want anything, some of our better winters we pitched a shut out until like mid to late November. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainsucks Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 October snow isn't happening this year. There isn't really a correlation anyway, so it doesn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've decided your the most accurate guy on this board. Just go with the opposite of your thoughts and it's the best medium range forecasting tool I've seen in years.

michsnowfreak Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 The October snow thing is a bit of a myth. Or should I say there's no definite correlation historically. Nearly half of Octobers see a trace of snow here, but I think the whole myth thing started with early season measurable snowfalls. A handful of snowy Novembers followed by crap Decembers the past decade haven't helped either. Plus the two snowy Decembers we did see the past decade saw nothing meaningful in Oct/Nov. So its really more a short term trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I've been right on just about every forecast I've made besides the July heat bust (which everyone else busted on as well), but okay lol. Whatever helps you sleep at night, I guess. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
