A very brief post this evening.

Taking a particular interest in New York. Some records broken or tied on this Labor Day.

An all-time record consecutive 80+F days continues.

Interesting this Labor Day is about 20 degrees warmer than on July 4th.

A look back at past Labor Days.

Think the 65 day stretch of 80s is back in NYC, try 103 straight days of 90+ in El Paso, TX which is a new record.

Yep, it’s been cool so far in the West this September but that’s about to change.

Temp anomalies for Sept to date.

Ridge and heat builds west through this week.

NWS Los Angeles

NWS Las Vegas

Despite a currently potent Hurricane Linda off Baja, this system is expected to weaken and move off to the NW having no direct influence on California or Southwest but what it will do it increase humidity and therefore the thunderstorm threat mid to late week.

Promise to have more tomorrow.
