Thanks! I must have joined in on the 1:30am rain session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 15 minutes ago, CarlislePaWx said: Pretty unusual temps both yesterday morning and again this morning. The spread between daily high and daily low was less than 2 degrees until around 9:30am yesterday morning with the low of 64.8 and the high of 66.0. Then again this morning at 10:50am the current temp is 65.3. So far today the high since midnight has been 65.8 and the low 64.0. That spread is very unusual for this time of the year. Today is more dramatic with this spread of 1.8 degrees still ongoing near 11:00am. The morning lows of 64 for 2 consecutive days in a row is pretty amazing. Finally, I've remained at or above 64.0 degrees continuously since Sunday morning around 10:00am which is now 49 hours in duration and will likely continue until at least tonight I would think. Great information, warmer than normal nights have become all too commonplace. I think that more than warmer days contributes to the + monthly departures, but that's a feeling i have and haven't looked into it more than that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The “cooler” period is still normal to slightly above, then the GFS reloads with more warmth, but it’s not ugly. Good deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It absolutely is the warmer nights that contribute more to the positive monthly departures. The monthly weather summaries for MDT almost always confirm that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe in November we'll get some highs in the 50s. My guess though is we go straight from 70+ to 45 and skip 50s and 60s entirely (except last week .. remember that?) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality is that most of fall is..."warm" but with cool nights. That's what we're missing for the most part. Lows just a few degrees below normal highs make it seem far warmer than what we'd like to think it should be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had highs in the 50's right now, some would be complaining about no fall as well...right into winter. I think most real fall weather people remember came from times in November vs. October. Just an opinion. I remember sweating in my Halloween mask every year. I went as Elliott Abrams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the point. If it were in the 50's now (highs) , it would not be normal. Its been too warm but its supposed to be in the 70's for highs and low 50's for lows right now. So highs of 68 or 74, etc...pretty normal...or lows of 54, 49...pretty normal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bitching should be more centered - it's the high lows that irritate me. 72 is awesome if it's back in the mid 60s by 5:30 or whatever. But we're higher than that and I don't recall a more humid start of October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is another issue. At MDT we are still below normal for our high right now but basically today's high is going to be "normal" it appears. But it does not feel like a chilly fall day. its muggy.
