Question Hello - could I please have a weather forecast for the first and second week of September 2008 for Mt Vernon and Baltimore Maryland. Thank you!
Answer Ann,
It is WAY too early to give any detailed forecast for September of this year. Your best bet is to check back with us a couple of weeks before then. By that time, we should have at least a general idea of what is going to happen.
As for the average weather at that time of year, it is usually warm. The normal high is around 80, and the normal low is in the upper 50s. Barring any hurricane or tropical storm, September is generally a rather dry time of the year, with rain about once every three or four days.
