I'll be moving very soon if that happens, not a fan of cold winters!
Sometimes a month or a season is cooler than average, other times it's above average. That's how averages work. A cooler than normal autumn does not mean any sort of radical change..now if you had cooler autumns over the period of 20-30 years you may have a climate trend, but otherwise it's just a blip on the radar.

LOL. I know that obviously, I was just humoring the response (the joke about the gulfstream stopping). Our climate is actually warming up, as evidenced by the data since 1880 recorded at our local Met Office weather station and that's not about to change any time soon. The current weather pattern is a result of a particular set of macroscale synpotic patterns of pressure distribution including high pressure blocking to the north.

The 12 Z run of the GFS model is showing low temperatures in the teens for the Great Plains before its even the end of October.
Yes, it's going to cool down. But teens Fahrenheit in October for that part of the world is not at all unprecedented. Record low for Fargo for September is in the teens.

Meanwhile here in Indianapolis temperatures have never gotten colder than 20 F for October, at least not in Indy’s climate record which dates all the way back to 1872........

Right, but I thought it was the great plains you were worried about.

I had no idea that places in the Great Plains had colder record lows in September and October than other areas East of the Rockies. I looked up a few locations like Denver and Fargo, and the record lows for October in those locations is subzero cold, absolutely crazy, and with that I am happy I don’t live in those places since winters where I live are more than cold enough for me.
