Since 1944 the coldest temp on this date was 28 back in 1976 (Remember that cold year?)..the valley recorded its highest 24 hour rainfall of 4.62 inches on this date in 1996. There is a 50% chance of freezing weather after the 8th & a almost sure bet after the 30th of sept. An Observation on Sept 2nd,1919 stated that it was cold enough for Dew to freeze on a Doorstep.
There have been Snowsqualls & snow showers reported after the 20th with only trace accum at valley floor but with measurable accums at highest elev.

ps..I have personaly recorded a temp of 38 (3000') while camping out at my property(just south of valley) a few years back in mid to late aug.

Sorry Andy, I don't remember that year. Maybe it's because I was -10 years old....

This post gave me a good Monday morning chuckle.
Do the math! This means fishnski is 80, at least in internet years.

BTW, I have an uncle who surfs the web and sends emails at age 95, and thems is regular years.
