18z GFS is horrific.

I did not look but sucks if it gets warm again.

What made it so bad?

Persistent ridging.

That’s fine by me for October. Let the pattern flip in November to a persistent trough in the east. A little above normal in October is still usually pleasant. It prolongs open window season which helps the electric bill!

It’d be fine if above normal September/October weren’t something that happens basically all the time anymore, and doesn’t necessarily translate to a cold winter.

Its getting quite irritating if it gets hot again.  Bugs are getting bad which is a PITA.

Yes, bugs are still terrible now.

excellent sleeping weather. dropped to 50, little breeze blowing through the bedroom. Got a lil chilly pulled a cover up. I'll take it over AC any day. 

the weekend looks great. low 70s for a high, mid 40s at night

Red Sox look like they want to back their way in or just go home.  Phil's fall short but put up a better fight than the Sox are right now.

The thought of frost in parts of PA really warms my heart.

Happy early Birthday!

Thanks Blizz!

I wonder how Millervillewx is doing? Anyone know if he got that transfer out of Lubbock yet?

Maybe they should start paying a little attention the short term meso's.  They had rain over mdt at 7am.

We had a modest thunderstorm in Tamaqua at 7:30am yesterday.

Here was the 3K from Monday AM showing the scatted storms and general rain showers Tuesday AM.  Cannot count on it to point point exact locations with cells.  The HRRR had a similar look 24 hours prior.

I'll admit that I didn't look at the models over the weekend, but like I posted when I left for work. I was surprised we had some light rain already at 5:30am. By the time I loaded the trailer in Hazleton and came back down through Tamaqua, a cell had popped up just west of town. Saw my first flash at a traffic light in Hometown and thought, "was that lightning?", but kind of dismissed it until I got into Tamaqua itself and saw a streak come down on the mountain in front of me.  From there to the Blue Mountain on 309, it was a strange combination of lightning, moderate rain, and the rising sun in my eyes through the windshield.

I hear ya.  And I was more pointing out that the NWS could have had it in their forecast a little more strongly vs. suggesting you dropped the ball.  LOL.

Both Boston and New York have been riding the Comet all season. Looks like the Bombers are peaking the crest right now and Sox might be heading for the first drop.

LOL, I have no idea.

It’s a horrrrrrrrrrrrible city. But he’s just there for experience and not to dig rots thankfully.

Just a quick reminder that today is the day that two clown range GFS model runs predicted a PA snowfall a couple weeks back.

Seattle is only a 1/2 game out. Phils are done now that Wheeler couldn't get the win.

Hundreds. I would imagine most days in DJF have at least one clown range GFS run with digital snowfall. You know, 20 and snowy on one run then 55 and sunny the next.

Hmm...can't say I haven't sung that tune before. 

Not sure if you were in here yet last winter...I'm not the super biggest fan of snow maps. 

HOWEVER...a lot in here are and I respect that.

Mariners came out of nowhere. Going to be an interesting final 5 days of the season.

Snow maps result in a lot of disappointment mostly.

Couldn't have said it better myself. 

Except for the me getting excited part. I don't.

Them, and St. Louis. Still trying to figure out what to make of them, winning 17 straight and getting rewarded with an away wild-card game against a 100 win team.
