Long Range Lookout: Fall-Like Temperatures and A Wetter Pattern? Find Out!

          It's already almost the middle of August, if you didn't catch up with reality yet! Fall is almost here and the temperatures are getting ahead of themselves. With temperatures only topping out at the lower 80's and soon to only be the upper 70's you might as well say it's September outside. Areas in Northern New York and Northern New England are only getting to the upper 60's. So what is ahead for us and all of the US? Very good question for you to ask!

          It looks like the same weather precipitation is on the way. Temperatures could rise in about a week right before the fall right back down to the 70's and 60's. So it looks like you might as well jump into the pool right now to get used to the water, because it won't be going back up until next year. There really is no huge warm up in sight. So I am sorry but it looks like '13 summer is slowly disappearing. Now I am not saying I can promise you that, but that is what it sure looks like.

          But lets look at the precipitation side of things. Really it looks like the precipitation will continue to be above average with lows just coming and coming. Luckily they are not to strong. So the overall pattern is on the slightly below average temperatures and above average precipitation. Aahh, perfect for winter! Here is a graphic created to show the pattern over the next 10 days.
