CLIFTON’S WEATHER ALMANAC FOR SEPTEMBER 26TH:

RECORD HIGH: 90 – 2007 RECORD LOW: 42 – 1987

The heavy rain yesterday that was anticipated missed our area again so instead of 1-2 inches of rainfall we only received about 1/4 of an inch which only put a small dent to our recent dry conditions.
Today will be a mostly sunny and warm day and a little less humid with dew points dropping from the 70s yesterday to the low – mid 60s today.
Saturday will be partly sunny with mild temperatures, a weak disturbance will give us a chance of showers at night. High pressure will then build into our area for Sunday but skies will remain mostly cloudy.
Mainly dry weather next week. Temperatures will be slightly above normal Monday and Tuesday with cooler weather expected for the first couple of days of October.
