Good Sunday, folks. The breath of fresh air we’ve been waiting on for the past two months is blowing in today. This will bring a taste of September temperatures for the next few days. Beyond that, much of the pattern is likely to be dictated by what, if anything, happens in the tropics.

Our day starts with some showers and thunderstorms across the central and east. This action moves out during the afternoon, leaving us with much better air blowing in.

This will set the stage for some very cool air tonight with lows in the 50s. The 40s may not be too far away from us…

Monday will be absolutely fantastic with highs in the upper 70s for much of the central and east, and low 80s in the west. Sunny skies will combine with dewpoints in the 50s to give us some of the awesome sauce…

Tuesday looks like another winner of a day, but moisture starts to creep back in by Wednesday. A stray shower or thunderstorm will be possible. The storm chances increase on Thursday as another cold front sweeps in here…

As I mentioned earlier, the tropics will, directly or indirectly, dictate the pattern after that.

It’s interesting to note the CFS with an overall cooler look through the first few days of October…

I’m not sure I buy fully buy that, but that’s what it shows. Speaking of something I rarely buy into…

Have a great day and take care.
