Next week, the first full week of [meteorological] autumn in Bend, has 3 days in a row of highs in the 70s and lows in the 40s.

And that sounds like fall to me.

Nice to hear our local (Bend, OR) TV (KTVZ) news weather-talker (not a meteorologist) actually knows the meteorological seasons!

 

 

And she's not afraid to say it. :)

However...in about 3 weeks I expect she'll make a reference to the "the Official start of fall"...  :rolleyes:

Our area's forecast is for the hottest Labor Day Weekend in history. This will add extra numbers to the hordes already flocking to our mountains, lakes, and reservoirs. Throw in extreme fire conditions and I am very concerned and worried. Wish us luck.

83 here in Calgary. That qualifies as a hot mid-summer temperature, not early September. Not complaining though!

We have a Red Flag Warning here in Central Oregon...but it expires early Saturday morning. Just one very-hot day -- today -- here.

We are worried too. Currently 100 degrees and 20 mph winds. Go bags and pet carriers are ready - but then again we have lived this way since 2020. May we all make it through.

The new normal. We consider 90° sweltering hot here at home. In the first 30 years we lived in our mountain home, the highest temperature we ever saw was 95°. Two years ago, we saw one day at 96°. Last year, a new record high for us skyrocketed to 99°. Today, our thermometer recorded a new record, 102°. My god, it is HOT!!!!

I'm hearing thunder right now... And though it didn't get as hot as forecast today, it's been mostly hot and dry for weeks.

I expect a few fires will be lightning-sparked this evening.
