Look at that Dig in the west! These are temps at 10,000'. It's not always below freezing at this level in October that far south. Normal is +5C over Vegas.
It's -10C over Idaho this evening and normal is about freezing
I pray we get a boil up around Cuba. Gulf water temps are super heated above normal thanks to a insane above normal Oct. If the upper levels are right a super cane can come alive in the gulf with gust over 220mph. Look at what we had in the Panhandle on that insane hot and above normal Oct in 2018. That cane blew up in no time with the super heated above normal gulf water temps since we never have falls anymore. 3 more weeks to go so with any luck something will boil up.
Hit 90F here today. Before today the last time we hit 90F was Sept 21. Fairly summer-like here thru Friday with highs in the upper 80's and lows 68-70F.
Looking forward to front arriving by the weekend. Should bring highs down to the 70's and lows to near 50F.
Euro sticking to an overall warm pattern to end October with possible changes in November
Probably too early to start a North American Winter 2021-2022 thread but the UKMet latest run is bringing more cold air into North America but a warm souther US with possibly a battle zone in the Central US. Could be a wild winter

It's still a long time away, but related to this there are increasing signals about the possibility of a major blizzard hitting the northwest plains of the US the week after Columbus Day.

Gotta hand it to modern numerical weather prediction, it has made huge strides over the years. When I made this post 8 days ago the temperature in Livingstone, Montana was almost 80°F. Here they are today:
Not exactly a major blizzard--but still a very impressive call by the models. Forecast snowfall amounts from NWS Billings:
Trough digging down to Mexico. Snowstorm for Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, Montana.
It's -10 below normal in Seattle right now, -12 below in Lander, Wyoming. And yes, the heat is in the East. +15 above normal in Chicago, +10 in NYC
Seattle been in the 30s before I been in the 40s this year. Not sure if that's common or not
