NOAA released their latest climate summary for September 2017 this week.  It shows that September was the 4th warmest on record, after 2016, 2015 and 2014.  All of the top ten warmest Septembers have occurred since 2003. The January through September period was the second highest, after 2016. Some parts of the Southeast are currently experiencing their record warmest year to date, according to their map.
