Year to Date Wx Summary:
(data from DanO's Place KMOFORSY1- click graph to enlarge)
Observations:
September the 14th and 15th marked, what I think, could turn out to be a semi-permanent change in the weather pattern that persisted for much of the summer months! It had been Hot! Hot! Hot! Yes, if you like your thermometer to read in the hundreds, then you would have liked Forsyth Missouri this past July and August.
Of some concern, is the lack of any significant rainfall. So far this month, I've registered 0.16 of an inch. We have some ways to go to his the 4 inch average that has been compiled over the past thirty years.
After the first frontal passage, on Wednesday the 14th, it was; cool, overcast and just down right pleasant. The little rain that has been recorded fell that day.
Check out the national weather map below. It shows both fronts quite well.

That graphic gives me a good feeling that some extended cooler weather may be on the way. The lower cold front which passed in the morning hours is expected to stall just south of the Arkansas border. The second one, however is expected to crash on through later today and tonight. It will bring a significantly cooler regime (and maybe rain) that should extend into the beginning of the second half of the month.
