Temperatures will have dropped to closer to normal for much of this week, but should still see above normal conditions for late September. Chances for rainfall will be best into the weekend into early next week.
We all now how dry it has been of late and even with rain in the forecast, the expected amounts will not make much of a dent in the overall dry conditions. This map shows how much precipitation is needed, per climate division, over the span of one month to end the drought. While we certainly want the rain, getting this much in a months time would lead to other problems!
Here is a table of climate averages vs forecast for today on the first full day of Fall. With the recent cold front, highs and lows are not too far from average for the date. Yearly rainfall however is far below average for most locations around the state.
Note: "N/A" or "MISG" will be displayed if values are not available. In the LOCATION column, click on links for a list of recent observations at sites of interest. In the WIND column, VRB is "variable" and G is "gust". Wind speeds are in MPH. In the BARO (pressure) column, values are in inches. In the REMARKS column, HX is "heat index", WCI is "wind chill index", and VSB is "visibility" (if shown).
