Good Tuesday, everyone. The new month is off and running on a very steamy note and that’s a sign of things to come. Temps take a walk on the very warm side and we will see a daily threat for a shower or thunderstorm. Basically, it’s a typical late summer setup for the next week.<\/p>\n

August wrapped up cooler than normal across the entire region, and many areas came in drier than normal. Take a look at the numbers for the month…<\/p>\n

\"Radar<\/a>As you can see, there were still a lot of pockets of above normal rainfall, but a lot of areas were drier for a change. This is welcomed news after the record rains of June and July… We really needed to dry things out and we’ve done that.<\/p>\n

Even with the drier than normal August, the year to date is a soaker…<\/p>\n

\"Radar<\/a>One thing I’m watching for as we head into fall is the potential for an increase in fall forest fires. We have a tremendous amount of growth in the forests from all the rainfall, and we turn drier for a while, watch out.<\/p>\n

The actual weather around here through Labor Day doesn’t really change. Steamy temps with a scattered storm or two. A cold front moves in early next week, and that’s something to watch for.<\/p>\n

It’s also the time of the year the GFS likes to really show major cold shots in the longer range…<\/p>\n

\"GFS<\/a>While the depth and the timing of these shots are many times fantasy land stuff, the model does usually show these as an indication of where the overall pattern is going.<\/p>\n

I leave you with your radars to track any isolated stuff out there today…<\/p>\n
