Today felt like an early Fall day. Sunny all day with a NW wind. The high today was 22.1*C
and the morning low was 10.7*C. We are under the influence of a high pressure system so the barometer is rising and thankfully the humidity has dropped . Temperature at 8:30 pm was 16.9*C, it will be a coolnight but great for sleeping.

A warm front moved through this morning giving rain at times heavy. Total rainfall in my gauge here in Clayton Park West (Halifax, Nova Scotia) was 18 mm.

Temperatures slowly climbed during the day from a morning low of 15.4*C to a High of 19.8*C shorly after supper.

Also note on the surface plot, Tropical Storm Irene. It is not expected to impact Nova Scotia, it is currently curving around a Bermuda high Before it turns NE as it gets caught in the jet stream and is pushed out to sea.
