Really nice Fall weather is in store for us this weekend.
High temperatures will be around 80° each day thru Sunday, but much lower dewpoints will begin to filter in starting today, which will make the air feel crisp. By “much lower” I mean dewpoints in the 40s, which I honestly cannot tell you the last time the dewpoint was that low. You’ll be able to feel the difference between the air this morning and tonight, and especially Saturday morning.
I do not remember the last time our weekend weather looked this nice. Football weather is finally here.
High temperatures will generally be around 80° (probably less today with this thick cloud cover hanging around), waking up in the upper 50s(!!!). Drier air will also seep into the area starting Friday, with dewpoints getting down into the low 50s, maybe even the 40s – which will feel incredibly refreshing.
Mid 60s with some mist feels absolutely fantastic after the stretch of incredibly hot weather we’ve had.
For the most part, temperatures will technically be above average this week, but honestly, I’ll take it. Perhaps even creeping back near 90° by the beginning of next week, but it’s not the upper 90s. Glass half full.
Some of those W of 65 saw some rain today, but most E of 65 maybe saw a drizzle.
Unfortunate, because we could use the rain. But it kept the temperatures a whole lot cooler than what we’ve been dealing with for the entire month.
Today is the last day we have to deal with the “stupid hot” temperatures for the forseeable future.
Highs again will reach into the upper 90s.
The great news is that after today temperatures finally relax.
There has been lots of talk recently about our ongoing El Niño, even named the “Super” El Niño. But what does that even mean? I’m sure you’ve seen all sorts of predictions about what this may spell for this upcoming winter – I’ve heard it all from a ton of snow to tornado outbreaks. Here, we’ll just talk facts.
I do finally have good news, but I’ll get thru the bad first.
Our Heat Advisory now goes thru Sunday at 7p.
Actual air temperatures (in the shade) will continue to be near 100°, with humidity sending heat index values near 105°.
This forecast would be impressive even in July/August, and the fact that it is September 17th makes it even more impressive.
Impressive as in, brutal.
Heat Advisory continues thru 8p Saturday for heat index values near 105° each afternoon.
I am running out of ways to say “it’s hot and dry” – but I’ll do my best.
Our Heat Advisory now runs thru 8p Saturday.
Actual air temperatures will flirt with triple digits each day, with heat index values near 105°. Every single day thru Sunday will have a chance at either a tie or breaking the daily record high.
Our average high for September 15 is 83°. We passed that at 9a this morning.
Our forecast high is 100°, which would break the daily record high of 98° set in 1927. If we do hit triple digits, it would also be the second latest instance of us doing so (latest is September 21, which we did in 2022).
