harrisale Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Warmth is cause of the warm front plowing through the region ahead of the cold front. Temperatures should drop off nicely tonight to around 34-38F. Should get much cooler over the next few days, snow cover building up across Northern Ontario and that may help fuel the cold air coming down. A few flurries is quite possible tomorrow night through Thursday morning. I expect temperatures to hover around 41-44F on Wednesday and Thursday with overnight lows at the freezing point. Warm and cold front can clearly be seen on a temperature plot; cool air on the way for sure. Was pleasantly surprised walking outside at lunch hour, still pretty warm in the sun although the wind sort of counters that. Certainly possible that flurries could be seen but I'd suspect them to be more in the Bruce/Huron area than the GTA, although its not entirely out of the question.

Geos Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I have to break out my light winter jacket today. Normal fall jacket is not cutting it with the wind today. Feels like early winter out there today! High will definitely be the 51° between 12-1am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 High will definitely be the 51° between 12-1am. Same here, the midnight high of 53 will be the daily max. Haven't been any higher than 43 so far during the daylight hours. Brisk northwest winds are making it feel pretty cool out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I agree it's not very likely we'll see any flakes. Quite nice out for sure in the sun! I think temps should be around 50F, I would be shocked to see highs any lower than 45 from this trough for the GTA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewers Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Looks like a widespread hard freeze is likely as long as we get some clearing tonight. 4km NAM has all of SE WI in the mid-upper 20's tonight. BTW Lone Rock is reporting -SN currently. Nothing showing up on radar but wouldn't be surprised if something is falling out of the low stratus deck.

Chicago Storm Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Two records potentially in play tomorrow for ORD... Record low max temp of 41 (1913) and record snowfall of a T (1937). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was partly sunny about 3 hours ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrisale Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Beautiful Autumn day!!! 1021131.JPG Nice catch! House was down to 60 last night, so had to flip on the furnace for the first time this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Great picture Bo! Talk about good timing. Clouds starting to thin as sunset approaches. Daytime high of 45°. 40° now. Stores had the heat on at the entrances as you walk in today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Biked last evening with shorts on and about 50F...brrr... Today had 39F at one point in the van...not sure we got above 40F... nasty wind too. Need some sunshine...make it a lot more tolerable. To be honest, give me this over 90f anyday.

Snowstorms Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Nice catch! House was down to 60 last night, so had to flip on the furnace for the first time this year. Yeah currently 52F or 11C at the airport and i expect a steady drop off in the next few hours as the cold front moves through. Temperatures away from the Lake should get down to 0-1C or 32F tonight and around 38F near the Lake depending how fast the skies clear. Could see some flurries tomorrow night and Wednesday evening. Looking at the long range models we should see another trough developing around Halloween time after this weekend and that could be the coldest by far, if anything, the chances of snow maybe higher at that point in the GTA than the next few days. Could be a battle between the Atlantic and Pacific as we begin November esp with the +AO depicted on the GFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Not even 7pm and the temp is 36° here. Skies cleared quickly after 5pm. Allergies are pretty much gone already. Haven't had itchy eyes since the frost on Sunday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Temps have really tanked here as well. Down to 35 already. Not sure how cold we'll get, as clouds will roll in later in the night at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonger Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Amazing that the lowest temp this season was nearly a month ago... 34℉ on Sept 23rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Dewpoints really in the tank. ORD already 40°, not too shabby. 40° in south Evanston by Alek...imagine that...Alek getting frost in October, lol. Whenever the snow does accumulate, my new snowboard is done!

cyclone77 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Very unusual for us to be colder than Sterling, or Clinton, but it's already down to 33 here. Temps absolutely tanking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Van showed 35F when we just got home... Went out into the backyard in looks to be a great (cold) night for star gazing. Temps should really drop off i would imagine tonite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: In the grass now. Nice. Remember when measuring to place the base of the ruler on the wood surface, and not the cement next to it. Lol. Got it! Perfect 24" square too.

DAFF Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Has anyone else noticed that the same areas to the west who saw the warmth a few weeks ago are the same ones who are feeling the dramatic cool down this week. Its cooler outside today but still no freeze or heavy frost at home. Almost broke out the gloves this am loading the water truck, wet hands in the brisk wind really felt like winter.

Geos jokes will start again. Thanks for reminding me that I need to repaint mine. I never thought I'd get to use it in October again, but you never know.

I never thought I'd get to use it in October again, but you never know. They seemed to still fly at the end of last winter during that late February storm. I had the photographic evidence to back up my claims though! 34° now with a few passing clouds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 After settling to 33, it bumped back up to 35 for awhile, but back down to 32 now. 2nd freeze of the season, and possibly the first hard freeze if the fall continues before the clipper's clouds roll in.

TugHillMatt Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 My friends here in Muskegon have been posting on Facebook that it was snowing about an hour ago. I missed it. I will probably have more chances to see it tonight and this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
