Hoosier Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Looks like we might flirt with 80 on Saturday though clouds could keep things in check. 00z MEX had 81. Only have to go back to 2011 to find the last time we hit 80 after Oct 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrisale Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Was down at 44F this morning, up to about 65F now. Agreed, great above-normal stretch of weather that should continue into Saturday. Normal high is 59F (15C) here. Sky was perfectly clear last night, watched the cresent moon set over the shores of Lake Ontario last night, and even caught a meteor (very bright too, for being in the city). Some cloud rolled in from the south from that low off the coast around 11pm but it seems to have pushed back now as we have clear skies. Southerly winds/lake breeze was kicking up some decent swells on the shore last night. Walked out onto the pier and it felt noticably warmer from the warm lake temperature compared to the cool air over land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I guess we're back up now. Only 69° for today. Lake wind kept going all day. 7 day forecast for Chicagoland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Looks like we're back on the rollercoaster that we saw a bunch of in August and September. Skilling mentioned through the 10 day period it will likely stay in the 50s. Fog building in nicely tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowstorms Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Could be a stormy end to the month. The GFS shows the jet stream ramping up with a train of storms past day 7...but that's more long range. Could be a nice cool down mid-late next week which should help build well needed snow cover on our side of the pole, then a more potent outbreak could occur in the last few days of the month as models show a decent -EPO/-NAO coming up...early season snowfall?

weatherbo Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 pleasantly cool this morning at 39. Looks progressively cooler next week with highs falling to the upper 40's by next Friday. GFS and Euro both showing first flake potential for northern lakes around day 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Up to 74F already with hurricane winds. Time to be done with this ...we need a few weeks of 50Fs and 60Fs... Trees really starting to turn here. I'd say we must be nearing peak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how exactly the last 2 weeks of October will play out, but our current +8℉ on the month will dissolve. My guess is we finish around 0 to +3 on the month.

My guess is we finish around 0 to +3 on the month. I doubt 0. The pattern looks like mostly troughs and cold waves starting early next week through the end of the month. Sucks the CFS is so worthless and warm biased that it doesn't give us a real outlook, I wish they would calibrate it correctly for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks the CFS is so worthless and warm biased that it doesn't give us a real outlook, I wish they would calibrate it correctly for once. The next five to seven days for you will average out to about average, and then the last 10-12 days of the month will essentially have to average about 6-8F below normal to compensate. My guess is +2-+3F anomalies will be most common in the region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
