Locally zonal upper level flow will dominate today on the southern
edge of low pressure covering the northeastern quadrant of the
country. Deep layer ridging will remain southeast and northwest of
the region. At the surface, a frontal boundary separating unseasonably dry air from more seasonable tropical moisture is
draped across the Tri-State region from around Tifton, southwest
through the Tri-State line and across the coastal Panhandle region.

NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT AND HIGH PRESSURE AT THE SURFACE WILL BRING
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND LOW HUMIDITIES FOR THE SHORT TERM. THE COLD FRONT THAT HAS BECOME STATIONARY ACROSS SOUTH GEORGIA WILL BE IN
CLOSE ENOUGH PROXIMITY TO THE EXTREME SOUTHEASTERN PART OF THE CWA
It really has felt like a northern summer after these wonderful fronts - cool nights and clear, dry days. Let's see if I can keep the peak electric bill below $150 this summer - it was $144 for July, so it looks doable if it doesn't get too hot. A couple more of these fronts to close out August, and it's all downhill from here.
It got down to 60 F last night in Alexandria, LA. That still didn't break the record of 54 F set back in 2004 on August 14 which was also the record for the entire month.
Might as well continue here... Interestingly last post was same month, last year. Lets keep these Canadian Highs dropping down. But impressed how far the front went.
Summer Cold front pushed to Gulf Coast producing some nice Fair weather clouds & low dew points in parts of the south.
Now I remember why I had such an easy time of it last summer - we kept getting these refreshing cold fronts. It's supposed to get more humid by the weekend, but it looks like the 90's will be held at bay, at least up until I leave for Michigan
