Rain was sparse here. Still need more.
That Weds storm looks to get your area. Low pressure right over Chicago.
Do you ever go to Garfield Park Conservatory? Trying to plan a day trip down there but itâs a drive from hereâalthough itâs all interstate driving. Iâve done Duluth and back in a day many times, but Chicago is further.
Just looked it upâŚChicago has had about .4 inches of rain in SeptemberâLa Crosse is at 2 inches.

Another 1.63 inches of rain this morning. Now above avg for Sept. This should all shift east and we should go dry after today for the next week.

Very dry end of summer in my area. A couple systems have passed through in the last couple weeks but missed us. Weâre in our sixth week now without any real precip, and the long term forecast shows dry for at least another week.
We had an unusually wet summer up until it stopped raining in mid-August, which has prevented the current drought from being too damaging. Hopefully things change soon or mushroom hunting season will be ruined!

Rain,rain and rain!
Berthound Pass just west of Denver has had almost 4 inches of snow. Sitting at 29F right now. It helps that the elevation there is 11,300ft. I want to say this is the first snow of the season.
Very mild weather starting here. 70Fs and sunshine right thru the weekend. Model shows zero rain thru at least the next 10 days if not longer. Looks like another very dry stretch. Those that didnât get this last rain are going to be pretty crusty.

Chilly this morning but warmed to 81F. Extended is 75F to 80F everyday and 50Fs at night. Fall is going to be very short this year i think. The more we get into October the bigger the plunge will be when it does flip.

70s and 80s for highs all the way into October. Too warm for me to make cider. Yellow jackets would be out of control

Drought is back. The rain last weekend was totally insufficient, and no more in sight. Iâll have to water the trees for the winter.
The GFS really has no rain for the Chicago area in the next 15 days. Models are incorrect often, but the trend appears dryâvery dry.

We got that this morning. Warm, humid air too. I was surprised when I opened the door and it was warmer outside than in.

i heard long island/nj/ maybe carolinas is getting 2 hurricanes at once. thrilling. maybe an arborist will finally be able to get me 20 yards of wood chip so i can get rid of the grass in my rubus patch and fill the bottom half of my new beds
It doesnât move very far north. High pressure blocks it so the system dies out. Iâd be worried about flooding down there.

That tropical storms doesnât come inland anymore on euro/gfs. Just sits offshore and spins. Looks way less of an issue.
GFS starting to hint at a first freeze.

Hurricane might have brought some rain.
Your area looks like rain maybe a week from mon/tues. A âcoldâ shot will bring maybe a night or 2 of 30Fs and back to mildness.
