August 27, 2025 Wednesday Weather Update

Ensembles showing low chance of MDR activity in Atlantic through 10-days

What the month did

August 2025 was the 28th-warmest August in the 132-year national record (1895–2026), at 73.4°F against a 1991–2020 normal of 73.1°F (+0.3°F).

August 2025 was the 27th-driest August in the 132-year national record (1895–2026), at 2.3in against a 1991–2020 normal of 2.7in (-0.3in).

NOAA/NCEI Climate at a Glance, contiguous United States. This is the observed record for the month, not a score of anything said in this piece — the forecast ledger begins 2026-08-17 and cannot reach earlier posts.

Tropical Storm Fernand (06L) is the only show in town but will merge with a frontal boundary and become post-tropical soon.

Ensembles showing signs of life in the 10-14 day range as tropical waves from Africa find a more hospitable MDR for development. The negative environmental factors (upper-level troughs) will move away and vertical wind shear will decrease allowing for tropical storm formation.
