September 2015 was cooler than normal for most of the Southeast, based on preliminary data through this morning. This was in stark contrast to most of the rest of the country, which was much warmer than normal. Precipitation across the Southeast varied quite a bit, with the Florida peninsula and areas of Georgia, Alabama and the Carolinas above normal while drought continued in other areas.
The rain and associated clouds were a major factor in keeping the temperatures cool. If you want to see maps for the entire US or for other regions, please visit the High Plains Regional Climate Center climate map site at https://mrcc.isws.illinois.edu/CLIMATE/.
