Things could certainly change as we get closer though. Either way, it will be a colder end to the week with the first freeze of the season possible Friday and/or Saturday mornings.

Almost all of that came on a single day as a result of a locally heavy thunderstorm.

Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during September and how it relates to climatology.
