After a warm summer we've had an early frost here in Edmonton.

Many suburban locations dipped down to between 0-1°C this morning. The airport got down to -0.1°C so officially a frost.

The coldest station I could find was a place called Ferintosh about 90 km southeast of Edmonton which got down to -2.2°C at 0700h.

The Environment Canada downtown station low temperature was 3.5°C. I live in central Edmonton and my own personal weather station got down to 3.4°C so no frost where I live.

Whoa at the frost in Edmonton couple weeks earlier than normal.. Nice. I feel like I am years away from 1st frost! lolol.




4 Upper Level Maps..


This was 2 days ago Thursday.. Jet dipped in the Northeast with some cool fresh Canadian air which gave us our lowest lows since June/Early July in the Northeast. We haven't had these dips since June really. 588dm line all the way down in Southern SC.





This is Tuesday 28th coming up. heat Wave starting on Monday for us here. Ridge builds back in (seems easy to build up again). Core over the southeast so we'll get that humidity and heat pumped all the way up to Quebec again. Look at that 594dm! All the way over D.C area. Nice dip for Northern plains.





2 days later Thursday 30th a front comes through and looks like Southeast core disappears while Southwest builds..


We're still in a zonal pattern which means warm or seasonable (It is still summer)





4 days later Monday September 3rd. Boom. Back up the ridge builds in the East. Another heat wave again?


Nice dip for NW! Snow above 8k again? NWS Montana mentions its possible.







So looks like we have some different set ups next 10 days but consensus shows there are no dips digging south in Eastern U.S which leads me to believe the "breaks" wont be as cool as we just had AND majority of the time it will be hot and humid.

No cool weather for me for months.

Had one small blow up around 330pm and a bigger area is headed my way it if makes it. Sure love the east flow much better than the reverse west windflow.

Suffering with this 78° heat. Once you get used to a 73° cool raise it five and feel the change especially with humidity tossed in the mix.
