Today's Records and Climate Data

As an upper level trough approaches our region from the west later this week, the probability for rainfall will increase, especially across the west and northwest half of the region but higher rainfall amounts are trending downward.

It's looking like at least the western third of the Four State Region could see excessive heavy rainfall by late this week as early as Wednesday Night but especially Thursday into Thursday Night. This could result in some flooding concerns.

Above normal temperatures will continue for this late day in September with highs today ranging in the lower to mid 90s. Lows tonight will range from near 70 to the mid 70s.

Dry weather and hot temperatures will continue to combine to make for favorable conditions for fires to start and spreads. See the information provided on how to prevent fire starts.

Here are today's climate records for selected sites across our Four-State area.
