Well, it’s shaping up to be a September to remember for the local area with abnormally dry and warm conditions thus far. In fact, the heat will only expand thru the final part of September as we roll into October next week. Daily and even monthly record highs may be in jeopardy early next week (for the start of October!)
After Friday morning’s fall-like start, temps trend very warm across the area into the weekend and early Oct. Daily lows are forecast to be only a few degrees away from normal high temps. But wait, there’s more! All-time monthly high records for Oct. may also be tied or broken!
The drought monitor update Thursday morning shows Moderate Drought increasing in size. Over the next week, high pressure favors dry weather as heavier precipitation occurs north and west of our local area. Please follow local burn restrictions as we await more substantial rainfall.
Please remember to water…correctly!
