Tim’s forecast is usually endless rain icons by now.

It’s like we’ve swapped climates.

Gonna get a wide variety of candy this year and the kids with good, creative costumes will get the full size Twix. The lame costumes will get fun size Dots.

Yet another month of summer…maybe. 

Might be a huge transition.  Definitely not for a while though.

Penalize kids who can’t afford good costumes/whose parents don’t help them as much. Sounds dope.

It's October now and we haven't had a frost yet or even the need for heater season yet. The sage bugs were terrible this week so hopefully we get a chill to kill them. Due to our rain we had a two day break from them.

Here's July-August-September for the entire West. Pretty anomalously warm.

Not sure what station in northeast Lane County is throwing the averages so far off and creating a cool-temperature bull's eye.  It certainly doesn't represent reality.

Warmest July-September ever at SEA.

Jim seems to think it could lead to something great though. Pretty noteworthy since he’s usually such a pessimist every fall...

Jim’s recent post (“Might be a huge transition.  Definitely not for a while though.”) is actually pretty realistic for once. Beyond a week or two out is deep clown range, and climo says there should be a seasonal pattern change soon.

I still think it’s generally going to suck this winter. Even if the rains do, as odds dictate, start this month, it’s going to be such a late start from such a dry summer that mushroom season is going to be a big bust, a’la 2012: by the time it’s wet enough, it will be too cold. And that will be the sucky start to a generally sucky rainy season. (Just a gut feeling, of course.)

It's called clown range for a reason.

Low of 50 this morning. 3 years ago…the low temp was 36. 

At least every clear night here is getting well below 50 now.  We'll see if that holds true with the warmer pattern setting in.

I suppose one defective sensor in a sparely populated area could throw things off like that.

I have been pretty realistic overall lately.  I hate the pattern we are in, but I'm simply pointing out this type of regime this time of year in a Nina has led to great stuff in the winter before.  No doubt this is a lot like 1988 especially when looking at the 500mb level.  I said many times there is also big bust potential this winter.  Isn't a weather forum for throwing ideas out there?  One member in particular seems to get offended by that.  One thing that is nearly certain is this pattern will change.  We'll have to see what that means exactly.

PDX hasn’t been below 50 since May 22nd. How crazy is that? Might might it really close to 5 months looking at models. 

We also hit some record numbers for warm overnight lows up here. We had 21 +60 lows beating the record of 19 set just last year. Lot of the crooked warm averages set this summer have been due to very warm overnight lows.

Indeed.  Even though we came close to beating the 1967 record warm September that one was much hotter for max temps.  The warmth wasn't that noticeable this year (in September) because the maxes were within reason for the most part.

That is astounding.  SEA snuck in a 49 on Sep 19 and also a couple in June.
