I encourage subscribers to use the app vs regular text messaging.  We have found text messaging to be delayed during severe weather.  The app typically will receive the messages instantly.  I recommend people have three to four methods of receiving their severe weather information.

 

Remember, my app and text alerts are hand typed and not computer generated.  You are being given my personal attention during significant weather events.

 

 

WWW.WEATHERTALK.COM subscribers, here is my day to day schedule for your weather products.

 

These are bonus videos and maps for subscribers.  I bring these to you from the BAMwx team. I pay them to help with videos.

The Ohio and Missouri Valley videos cover most of our area. They do not have a specific Tennessee Valley forecast but may add one in the future.

The long-range video is technical. Over time, you can learn a lot about meteorology from the long range video. Just keep in mind, it is a bit more technical.

Here is the latest WPC/NOAA rainfall outlook.

This is for today into tonight.  This would only cover rainfall after 7 AM this morning.

 

A second rain event is forecast Saturday night and especially on Sunday and Sunday night.  A few spotty showers may remain into Monday.

When you add that event with the first event you could receive these totals.

Some of the guidance paints heavy rain in the region Sunday.  I will be monitoring trends in the guidance.

The National Weather Service defines a severe thunderstorm as one that produces quarter size hail or larger, 58 mph winds or greater, and/or a tornado.

 

Today and tonight:   A cold front will push through the region with showers and thunderstorms.  A few storms could produce strong and gusty winds.  Lightning, of course, is a concern for those outdoors.  The risk of severe weather is low.

Thursday through Monday:  Severe weather is not anticipated.  I am monitoring rain chances Saturday night into Sunday night.  I can’t rule out thunderstorms, but that will be dependent on the track of the area of low pressure.

  2.  Much cooler air arrives
  3.  Another rainmaker Saturday night into Monday
  4.  Hurricane Michael moves ashore

 

The big weather story today is the rain showers and thunderstorms.  The next weather story will be much cooler temperatures.  It is finally going to feel like autumn.

Weather Radar Link

http://weatherobservatory.com/weather-radar.htm

We will have scattered showers and thunderstorms in the region today.  A broken line of storms has been pushing through the area.  Severe weather is not a concern today.  Some brief downpours possible.  No major concerns.

The rain will wind down as we move through this evening.  The rain will end from west to east.

Cooler weather will prevail today through at least next Wednesday.

Check out some of these morning low temperatures being forward by the GFS.

The GFS has a bit of a cold bias in the long range.  Frost chances can’t be ruled out, but confidence isn’t high enough yet to place it in the forecast.

Thursday morning lows

 

 

Even colder temperatures will arrive early next week behind another cold front.

Here is the Monday morning GFS model temperature forecast

 

 

Here is the Tuesday morning GFS model temperature forecast

 

High temperatures over the coming days will mostly be in the 60’s.   A streak of below normal temperature days.

A weak disturbance will push through the region Friday afternoon and Friday night.  Some increase in clouds will be the end result.  Models are also showing a few light showers over southeast Missouri and southwest Illinois.  Lesser chances in west Kentucky and northwest Tennessee.  I increased probabilities slightly.

I am monitoring Friday night temperatures.  Frost seems unlikely, but monitor updates.  If temperatures are a bit colder then frost could occur.  Light frost.

Another cold front will arrive Saturday night into Monday.  This system will bring additional rain to the region.

There is a chance of some heavy downpours, but that will be highly dependent on the track of an area of low pressure.  At this time, severe weather appears unlikely.  I will keep monitoring trends.  Wind fields will be stronger aloft.  That can sometimes equal strong to severe thunderstorms.

The coolest air of the season, thus far, will arrive Sunday night into Tuesday night.

Frost is possible Monday and Tuesday night.  Monitor updates.

 

The September climate records have been posted.

These go back 124 years.  That means if the graphic says 124 that we hit a new record.  If it says 123 then September ranked second in that category.

It was the fourth warmest on the national average temperature rank.  Quite warm.

 

 

It was the second warmest when it came to national low-temperature rankings.  The nights were very warm across the nation.

 

 

As far as precipitation rankings, the nation ranked the third wettest since 1895.  Quite wet!  Not quite a number one ranking, but close.

 

 

On a regional scale, portions of our region had their warmest September since 1895.  Where you see number 124 is where it ranked first.

 

 

Let’s look at divisional precipitation rankings.  Portions of southern Indiana and eastern Kentucky had their wettest September on record.

Most of the rest of the region did average above normal when it came to rain totals.

 

 

 

Michael is a category four

Strongest hurricane in recorded history in that particular area.

Monitor updates from local officials/television meteorologists concerning this storm.  The local meteorologists along the Gulf of Mexico will certainly be talking about this.

Joining us as our Guest WeatherBrain this week is a hydrologist in the Research Applications Lab at NCAR.  He has a background in hydrology, geology and computer science.  In graduate school, he found a happy marriage of these in hydrological modeling, remote sensing, and more recently atmospheric modeling.  Ethan Gutmann, welcome to WeatherBrains!

Other discussions in this weekly podcast include topics like:

  • Should we re-do hurricane classification?
  • Ethan’s hobby of mountain climbing
  • U. S. Weather Roundup
  • Remnants of Hurricane Rosa entering SW United States
  • Astronomy Outlook with Tony Rice
