In the years between 2009 and 2013 there were only six days in Jyväskylä with a maximum above 20C. Not including today, three days this month have already passed the 20C barrier - September 3, 4 and 5. The 4th recorded the top with 21.6C. This was the warmest September temperature since 2009.

As I mentioned in my post from September 1, forecasts early last week predicted a return to cooler weather this week. That totally changed a few days later. The coming week now looks set for this autumn warmth to continue. Maximums around 18C to 20C are now expected until the weekend. Rain also doesn't look likely to return until the start of next week.
This morning saw heavy fog cover the city. It wasn't until just before 11am that it started to lift.

Despite a warm first day of the month, wintry weather has continued in Sydney. Of the past four weeks at Sydney Airport, only two days have climbed above 20C. In contrast to Jyväskylä's warmth on September 3, 4 and 5, Sydney Airport didn't even climb above 16C over the three day period. This was the first instance of three consecutive September days below 16C since 1995.
Remarkably, rain has also continued to pester Sydneysiders. The first week of September has seen rain on every day. In fact, of the past 23 calendar days, only one (August 31) didn't see rain recorded at the Airport. Daily totals haven't been as high as those seen in August though. Yesterday and today have both recorded 9.2mm, the highest daily total so far this month.
A band of rain is predicted to hit Sydney on Tuesday afternoon, but temperatures should be a little warmer, possibly as high as 23C.
