Nice and Sunny Start to Autumn

Discussion:

We have had some beautiful September weather today!  Bowling Green reached an official high of 79° this afternoon, and our normal high temperature is 80°.  So, these are very seasonable conditions.

Overnight lows have been a bit below average, which has left us with some chilly mornings.  That will be the case again tomorrow.  We will start the day off right around 50°.  So, you may need a jacket as you head out the door in the morning, but you won’t need it for long.

This fabulous weather is going to continue on for a good portion of the workweek.  Tomorrow, temperatures are going to reach right around 80° once again. However, our daily temperatures will slowly increase throughout the workweek, and we will see low to mid 80s for the second half of the week.

Low 80s may not be cool and crisp like we often imagine a nice Autumn day, but that is how we are going to kick off the season!  Wednesday is the first day of Fall, and it is going to be plenty sunny and just little warm.

Looking further ahead, while high pressure is going to keep us clear and comfortable for most of this week, our next chance of rain will arrive this weekend.  We will have more details on that later in the week.
