As we get set to flip the calendar to September this week, the weather patterns of August are likely not to alter too greatly as we begin the meteorological fall season.

Chris Miller at the National Weather Service in Lincoln indicates things are looking like they'll remain pretty consistent with August. August was warm with consistent temperatures in the 80s and overall pretty dry.

Projections for the fall are coming in warmer than normal, a good thing for the harvest season says Miller.

Miller indicates trends are strong trends towards a La Nina winter. He says the moderate temperatures could last into the early part of the winter with those typical winter weather patterns showing up later than usual.
