The Northeast and Florida are also expected to see above average temperatures. The Southeast has higher odds for a wetter than normal September. https://twitter.com/NWSCPC/status/1296440699664175104 An active month of tropical weather is leading to the wetter forecast for the Southeast, according to the CPC.
