The remnants of Gordon are moving across central Indiana over the next 36 hours. That, combined with a cold front, gave us over 3 inches of rain in the last 24 hours and 4 inches in the past 48 hours at our house on the north side of Indianapolis. Current forecast calls for an additional 4-6 inches by tomorrow night.

Loop last 4 hours with temps. Got some drizzle here and because the front doesn't want to move I got chane of rain each day coming up. Loving those 30s up north
Forecast here looks pretty wet. Daily precip chances at least 60% thru next Wednesday.

DISCUSSION...
This morning`s surface analysis indicates an elongated area of low
pressure extending from the Arkansas/Missouri border southeastward
into northeast Texas. A stationary front along this elongated low
transitions to a weak cold front which extends southwestward into
central Texas. Meanwhile, a broad area of high pressure extends
across the Gulf of Mexico. The combination of these two features
are maintaining the flow of deep tropical moisture into the
region. The 00Z KLCH sounding sampled a PWAT value of 2.17" which
is above the 90th percentile of the upper air climatology for
September. This abundant moisture is expected to remain in place
through the weekend into early next week.
A shortwave trough at 500 hPa is forecast to continue digging into
the Lower Mississippi River Valley through the weekend and remain
in place through the Tuesday/Wednesday timeframe. During the same
timeframe, the aforementioned surface low and cold front will
gradually progress south-southeastward. The combination of above
normal PWAT, upper level support for ascent, and low-level forcing
mechanism will result in scattered to numerous showers and
thunderstorms each day this weekend into early next week. Some of
the more intense areas of convection could produce very heavy
rainfall in a short period of time. The scattered to widespread
convective clouds along with showers and thunderstorms are
expected to result in high temperatures around 90 (which is average
for early September).
Beyond Wednesday, the upper level short wave is expected to weaken
and upper level heights will begin to build back over the region.
In turn, PoPs are expected to return to the typical 30%-50% each
afternoon. Meanwhile, temperatures will climb back to slightly
above normal during the second half of next week.
NOAA's 7 day precip forecast showing 3+ inches for my area.
It's also showing landfall in North Carolina with 7+ inches.
Which brings the first mention of the season of snow in the Edmonton forecast.

Looks like it’s gonna be a super hard winter for the eastern two thirds of the lower 48 States, cannot believe it’s not even the middle of September and already they are talking about the first snow of the season in southern Canada.

Central Alberta = high northern plains. It’s not going to snow in southern Canada. And I don’t think western mountain cold is closely correlated to eastern US cold.
