Weather Talk: The start of September feels a lot different than last year

TONY PANN REMEMBERS. YOU REMEMBER TONY, RIGHT? IT WAS A BRUTAL HEAT WAVE FOR SURE TO START SEPTEMBER. SO OBVIOUSLY THIS YEAR, A PLEASANT CHANGE. KIND OF FEELS LIKE AUTUMN THIS WEEK. BUT IN CASE YOU FORORGOT, HERE'A LOOK AT SOME OF THE NUMBERS FROM SEPTEMBER 3RD. FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. LAST YEAR, SWITCHING OVER TO WEATHER TWO FOR ME AND YOU'LL SEE THE NUMBERS THERE. WE HIT UPPER 90S TO AROUND 100 DEGREES FOR FOUR STRAIGHT DAYS. SWITCH IT TO WEATHER. TWO GUYS, WEATHER TWO, WEATHER TWO. THERE YOU GO. OKAY, ON SEPTEMBER THIRD LAST YEAR, WE HIT 98 DEGREES. ON THE FOURTH WE HIT 99. ON THE FIFTH WE HIT 99. ALL OF THESE RECORDS. AND THEN ON THE SIXTH WE HIT 100 DEGREES. AND THEN THE HEAT WAVE FINALLY BROKE. NOW, OBVIOUSLY WE'RE IN A MUCH BETTER WEATHER PATTERN THIS YEAR, BUT HOW LONG WILL IT LAST? THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO FIND OUT. SO HERE'S THE LONG RANGE OUTLOOK FROM THE CLIMATE PREDICTION CENTER. THIS GOES FROM SEPTEMBER NINTH THROUGH THE 13TH. AND THEY'RE SAYING THAT MOST OF THE MID-ATLANTIC AND EAST COAST WILL CONTINUE WITH THIS KIND OF WEATHER PATTERN WITH TEMPERATURES BELOW NORMAL, WHICH IS VERY NICE. NORMALLY THAT MEANS ABOUT 70S, MAYBE LOW 80S WITH ALL THE SUMMER HEAT SUPPRESSED OFF TO THE WEST. NOW LET'S JUMP AHEAD FROM SEPTEMBER 11TH THROUGH THE 17TH. THIS IS THE 8 TO 14 DAY OUTLOOK. IT'S GOING TO GET A LITTLE BIT WARMER. IT LOOKS LIKE. BUT THESE GRAY SHADES RIGHT HERE REPRESENT TEMPERATURES CLOSE TO AVERAGE. SO WE DON'T SEE ANY BIG HEAT WAVES ON THE HORIZON FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF SEPTEMBER, THE TEMPERATURE SHOULD STAY FAIRLY COMFORTABLE AGAIN, WITH ALL THE HEAT SUPPRESSED OFF TO THE WEST. SO IF
