Yea, Thursday is the big question mark right now.  But as Tim mentioned, the warmth could come right back again for Fri and Sat before the real cold front comes through.  Going to be an interesting temp week.   A few of the later week days have records in the low 70's...may have to keep an eye on that. 

Look at the ensemble loops pal....IF GFS suite has a clue...it says big blue trough building in the east.  Its a tough call as to which models to go w/ for sure, but I'd lean to ens, at D8ish stuff.  JMO's.

I looked at every op (Icon 2 days, it did not go to the weekend, GFS, Euro and CMC)  and each has 3 days of 60 and above at MDT next week though how they get there is a bit different in that the CMC and Euro sink the warm front south on Thursday only to lift it back up for part of the weekend and Friday while  the GFS pushes primary front through much faster.

When is the strong cold front?

Detroit is not winning a game.

You haven't spent enough time watching Pittsburgh against horrible teams.

I was at the PITT - Tampa game IN Pittsburgh in 2014. Tampa finished the year 2-14 AND had to start their back up QB that game due to injuries.

Tampa Bay won. 

I will be shocked if the Lions don't win a game this year. It took a freaking miracle kick for them to lose to the Ravens for crying out loud.

Understood my sister is a big Steeler fan. I think the Steelers still win, keep Detroit losing.

Not disagreeing w/ your assessment, but I'm just suggesting that any Op run at 7+ days needs viewed w/ a notable dose of skepticism.  Thats all.  Op runs still capable of notable swings at 5+ lead time.  For me 5+ is almost always more Ens over Op runs and to that end, 7-10 is really my Ens window.

No doubt.  I am just not a big ensemble fan.  It just adds another "entity" into the convo.  It is a blend of all of the different versions of that model.  Great for trend watching though.  But not so great for looking at temps in a specific locale...in my opinion.  But the swings are definitely more subtle vs. Op's.

Yep different camps for sure,

For MDT, the  12Z GFS sort of drove its tent stakes deep but did concede a bit on main frontal passage over to Sat AM instead of Friday.  Before that it has 3 days with highs in the low to mid 60's and one day in the upper 60's....extrapolating out the 18Z temps.   Cooler air not far away so Indian Summer is on the map but could be squashed.

Increasing chances that I'll see my first snow later next week. If I don't in Pittsburgh, I'll have a much better chance crossing the Laurels on the way home Monday. 

You'll see it in the laurels, and I'll see it in NC Pa as I'll be in the mountains much of next week.  Cabin is in good spot for upslope events off the lakes.  If look holds should feel like early winter....NW flow should keep that cloudy/cold look anyway (in Mtns).

It can be a different world sometimes when you're traveling westbound and come up out of that tunnel into Somerset County, leaving behind the lowlands and all.

You got that right! I left Pittsburgh on a Monday after a game at the end of October in 2012...little east cost storm named Sandy was making some noise in these here parts. Anyway, it was a tricky drive up around Somerset coming east that Monday.

EC for Wednesday.  This will be low 70's at MDT if clouds do not save the day.   The record for Nov 10th is 76 in...drumroll.....2020.  Of course the EC overdoes it sometimes so a caveat with that.

Thursday warmth also shifted about 200 miles further north on this EC run.
