Weather report for September and October
By Monty Siekerman
The September and October rainfall this year was about average, but each month had an extended period of time with little or no rain--a dry spell of 17 days in September and another minidrought of 23 days in October.
According to local weather observer Phil Epley, Ada saw 2 inches of rain in September and 3 inches in October. This amount of 5 inches is only a quarter of an inch less than the historic average for the two-month period, according to Intellicast.
November begins dry and warm. Historic low and high temps for September are 28 in 1974 and 100 in 1953; for October, 18 in 1964 and 91 in 1953.
A recollection: Yes, the low of 28 at the end of September in 1974 brought SNOW, big flakes...a September snowfall, but the white that covered the ground soon melted.
