When the sun goes down for the next five or six days, it’s going to get chilly.
The AccuWeather forecast shows sunny skies and low humidity through Wednesday. Then clouds and the chance of showers on the cusp of October and the 1st, which is Friday.
The forecast shows no significant rain, so the rainfall Thursday might have been the last for September.
Officially at Reading Regional Airport, the preliminary total of 1.19 inches of rain was the final total as well for Thursday. The monthly total was 8.18 inches, fueled by the Ida deluge of 4.95 on the 1st.
This month is the eighth-rainiest September on record.
Complete totals for Thursday include New Morgan, 1.92 inches; Reiffton, 1.90; West Reading, 1.82; Bernville, 1.51; Mohnton (1), 1.49; and Muhlenberg Park, 1.34.
All but one were from the CoCoRaHS collaborative.
Jeffrey R. Stoudt, founder of the Berks Area Rainfall Networks, said the top totals Thursday were in Union Township, with a Geigertown spotter posting 3.39 inches and in Unionville, 3.22 was recorded.
The rainfall date record for Sept. 23 at an official site in Berks is 3.15 inches from 2003.
