Powerball

Officially at DFW, November 2025 will tie for the 4th warmest on record while the 2025 Fall will tie for the 2nd warmest on record.

Today will really kncok down the monthly average, but it should still up being a top 5 (if not top 3) warmest November on record for DFW. In addition, on the heels of 2024 which was the 3rd warmest Autumn on record for DFW, 2025 id on track for a top 5 or top 3 warmest Autumn as well.

I remember watching it live. The best part about it? That was actually a massive forecast bust. In the run up to the game, only maybe 1-3" at best was expected befoe it transitioned to rain (of course, by the time they realized the forecast was going to be a bust, they were already too far into the game to postpone it). Best game ever...

UPDATE: 3.95" is the official final total per FWD...

Bullseye! https://x.com/wfaaweather/status/1991697682084122874?t=kJ5x6yrdEHdWtt8gWCUCJw&s=19 This was also the wettest November day on record for DFW with 3.92" of rain today.

While the temps may be trending warmer, the winters have also been trending snowier and stormier for you all who are along/north of I-80. IMO, that's a good trade off.

I'm not sure it's possible to get hard data on it, but I know @michsnowfreak has expressed the same feeling on multiple occasions.

Clippers have to be an endangered species at this point, but it's been that way for a while. I remember them being quite common in the 90s through mid-2000s.

DFW apparently did set another record high minimum yesterday with a low of only 68*F (the previous record was 67*F).

For DFW, aside from shattering today's record high of 83*F, if the low of 72*F holds it will break the previous record high minimum of 70*F. The record high of 87*F was also tied yesterday.

DFW also achieved a high of 89*F today, breaking the previous record of 87*F set in 1960.

While it was an impressive setup on paper, it's not surprising that it busted for Chicago at least. Aside from the convective nature of LES, it is much harder to get ststionary banding on the west side of the lake.

I miss the Snow Advisory and Heavy Snow Warning headlines too...

The latest LOT AFD is insane. Apparently, this has potential to make the history books. In our lifetime, I'm struggling to recall a similar type of setup, especially so early in the season. I hope you Chicago folks enjoy!
