wxdude64 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 61.9 low new record warm minimum for the date for my location, beating the 58.6 from 2003 by a good bit. Little more drizzle and showers in am to add to total, Nate brought 2.78 inches to my gauge, VERY much needed. Now if we can just get the pattern back to October and not August it would be nice.

SlowerLowerDE Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Total from Nate: .08. It is very dry here. Hopefully we will get some rain tonight and tomorrow. Maybe a half inch if lucky. Been awhile since I have heard a lawn mower. We have lots of fat pecans but the squirrels are plundering them before they drop. No matter what I grow there is some animal, bird or bug that gets to it before it's quite ready to harvest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we knew we were gonna pay when much of August was more like early October. Thats just how things roll here. But that's how things roll pretty much anywhere. The rubber band will always snap.

RevWarReenactor Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I think this is good in the long run. Hopefully we are paying our dues to the blow torch now and the winter will be good. Don't think I can stomach another winter like last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Other than rain/clouds keeping temps down, the upper level pattern has strong consensus for a persistent -pna for the next 10 days. GEFS flips it through d10-15 but that's way out there. It's going to be a while before we can get any sustained bn temps. If the GEFS is right with the big ridge in the west, the conus will prob get it's first legit cold air mass of the fall towards the end of the month. Until then....shorts and flip flops galore.

I read that the Euro weeklies hold the pattern through the end of the month, so although it may not be as hot and humid as it has been the last few days, my gut says we get a flip in NOV. That's a good time for a flip imho too. Mid-late NOV flips usually have some staying power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all pac driven and this is the time of year where troughs in the east pac can persist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like we might at least get some seasonal air sneaking under the UL ridge this time next week. Highs in the 60s will feel glorious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking I made a mistake going to late for IAD/BWI in the contest. If the ridge on the GEFS is real then getting a blast of legit cool Oct air with freezes in the burbs seems more likely than not hitting a freeze by the end of the month.

Looks better for the the tidewater and coastal parts of our area to me. 12km NAM too. Maybe some 2"+ in those areas. Might be a bit overdone. I would be happy with an inch imby.

I like your pics for the first freeze for early Nov. I can’t believe I went with late October for IAD and 10 days later for BWI. My rationale was the bay has to be a furnace and will prevent 32F. I have remorse about my choices but too late now. I put DCA in early Dec. that I feel good about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
