For context, at Minneapolis, there have been 45 [of 152] Julys with 19 or fewer 80+ days, being nearly 30% of all historic Julys, and 91 [of 152] Augusts with 19 or fewer 80+ days, being nearly 60% of all historic Augusts. On the low end, July 1992 had only 3 such days and August 1912, 6. In the entire meteorological summer of 1904, there were only 19 such days. And July and August each have an extra day on September. And I get a weenie for calling September the newest summer month. Prior to 2000, the ratios are even worse. 43 [of 127] Julys, or more than 1/3 of 18th and 19th century Julys. And 79 [of 127] Augusts, or 62.2% of the time. Sorry but September increasingly holds it own against past Julys and Augusts. Is it breaking down heat records from those months? No. But it is within the historical climatology of those months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwx Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 A couple neat records to keep track of, Madison has broken its record of consecutive days with high temps 65 or above with 140 currently and no end in sight. The old record was 135 set in 2021. We will also set our record of consecutive max temps at 60 or above this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbnwx85 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 We still have managed 30 mph gusts up here. It's just amazing how massive this storm is and how something so far to our south is still impacting weather here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartman Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 The remnants of Helene have arrived today as it merges with a cutoff low. Here's to a long crappy final weekend of September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowtie` Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 In the first solid rain event in a couple of months, I have 1.52" in the tippy bucket this morning. Matches well with the radar estimates. There was a stripe of a firehose over the area and I was in it. These tropical remnants always seem to deliver. Looks like there is another slug of shower that are going to rotate through here in a little bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowtie` Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 I do not know where to put this, so I am going with here. With all the rain last night there was some wind. They did have a high wind warning out so this was not unexpected but I do not know if this qualifies as severe. I saw that at KIND there was a couple of wind speeds/gusts at 44/60mph. Now here in town we are thirty odd miles northwest of KIND so it might have been below that but there was some damage here in downtown Lebanon. One of the old buildings on the square lost a quantity of bricks. You can see here that the upper two or three feet above the roofline fell back unto the roof. That levered some of the facia bricks away from the building and they came crashing down causing a slight mess. The liquor store lost its sign. I have no idea how those lights did not get knocked off. Maybe the sign shield them just long enough. THey had already taken away the sign before I got there with the camera. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torchageddon Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 Perfect day here for Sep rounding off the best I've experienced. I noticed TWN put me under overcast even rain yesterday and I rightly ignored that shat. Instead it was mostly sunny at times filtered and gorgeous humid breeze til 4:30pm! Clouds were def intriguing morning then late aft when they fomented. We overperformed high temp by getting to 26C feeling like 31! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomp2mp Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 managed 0.01" at PTK so far today, my PWS hasn't registered anything (probably fked something up when I installed my new wind cups, so many earwigs living in there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartman Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 Got a total of 2.83" from the cutoff low and Helene's remnants over the final weekend of September. Very little more rain looks like likely to close out the month. Otherwise, looks like the dreary stretch will continue into the beginning of October until this pattern breaks at the middle of this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestMichigan Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 If GRR hits 80° today it will be 16th of the month and the most on record. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClimateChanger Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 1 hour ago, WestMichigan said: If GRR hits 80° today it will be 16th of the month and the most on record. At the airport. It looks like there was one instance of 17 days in the threaded record - 1908. Sounds like a reasonable figure - Detroit had 15, and Chicago 16 days that month. Still a very solid number for September. For context, 42 Augusts and 18 Julys have had 16 or fewer 80+ days at Grand Rapids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is so dry here. I cut the lawn last Thursday for the first time in 3 weeks. It looks like I just cut it today. I will say it has been nice not to be concerned about much lawn maintenance!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if some locations had their driest month ever. I think Cedar Rapids had no measurable precipitation, so that clearly would at least tie driest month ever.
