Both GFS and to some extent the ECM (QPF 2 inches) - show a period of wetness  Sun - Wed (10/8 - 10/11) with piece(s) of the system that may impact Florida.  We'll see if this trends wetter or drier as we get closer.  GFS so far most aggressive

If the Euro is correct about Newark reaching near 85 on Thursday, then it would be the first two 85 or warmer Octobers in a row since 1959 and 1960. Newark reached 87 last October.

All of those winters were different. Nothing really stands out from the following winters.

It's a warm pattern but one thing im not seeing is the Alaskan vortex, normally a kiss of death in winter. 

And I'll take my chances with a +AO this October since the -AO of previous years usually translated towards positive the following winters.  

I have no clue what this will all mean for winter, you can't even count on the ENSO since expectations have gotten skewed nowadays.

It would be nice if the Euro is correct about the tropical rains it has been showing for several runs early next week. Many areas haven't seen much rain since September 10th.

46 in Stony Brook. 59 when I left Nassau, and once again I’m wearing short sleeves. Fml.

Happens to me all the time now. I been going to work earlier, and I really feel the difference now. From the Bx to a little north of White Plains, go from around 60 to upper 40s.  After about 10 miles north I get tempted to turn the heat on.

Temps are already off to the races with a nearly 10 degree rise at Newark in the last few hours. SW flow and dry conditions will let some of the warmest spots make a run on 80 today.

Nah, we still wear short sleeves.  Low was only 46 IMBY this morning, but I've been wearing short sleeves all week, even Monday morning when I got down to 35

If I go out before ~11am it's sweats over shorts maybe with a light jacket or something then strip the layers in the afternoon and put them back on as the sun drops. When it's this dry the air heats and cools quickly.

Speaking of dry - It's getting desperate in the forests around here. Crunchy and dusty :o  Surprisingly most of the reservoirs are bank full though.
