Welcome to winter time, whoops I mean standard time. We will be on this time for only the next 4 months. Not sure how much longer we will be changing the time but as we are on this time only for 4 months it should not be called standard time.

Yesterday had some periods of strong winds and a few showers. The official H/L for Grand Rapids was 66/48 here in MBY my high was 65. There was officially 0.06” of rain fall (I had 0.16”) and there was no sunshine. There was a new record high set in Muskegon of 71 yesterday and that high of 66 was the 6th warmest at GR.  The overnight low here in MBY was 41 when there was some clearing. At the current time it is cloudy and 44 here. For today the average H/L is 51/36 the record high of 77 was reported in 1975 and the record low of 9 was reported in 1951. The record snow fall amount of 4.0” was recorded in 1988.

I think we have 2 snow storms to track as the tanking EPO and phase 7 MJO combine to give us some stormy weather.  The first storm looks to bring precipitation to @CentralNebWeatherand @hawkstwelve.  The GFS has been trending slower, stronger and further SE.  The 6z GFS has a blizzard very close to a few of our guys.

The second has been showing up on the GFS and Euro Control for days 9 and 10 for a few runs in a row.  As Tom mentioned it looks very interesting for us in the Central Plains.  First accumulating snow for KC?

I think its time to get into that Winter Storm tracking mode...I've been sorta feeling the seasons out here in AZ as we have seen some real deal Autumn weather for the SW desert standards.  Autumn came here fast a little over a week ago and it appears we will continue this trend for at least the next 10 days.  I gotta be honest, I don't know how I'm going to acclimate to those temps when I get back home.  It feels cold for me with temps in the mid 40's around sunrise!

I've been watching that slower, stronger SE trend that the models started to hint at yesterday. Each model suite has made slight corrections in that direction. As you mentioned, 06z GFS got us our closest call yet of the past couple days. Just a few more notches to the south and I'll be back in business! 🤞

We set a new record maximum low temperature this AM as we only dropped to 63.2 here in Chester County PA. This breaks the old mark of 62.5 set back in 2015. We will break another record overnight tonight as we should again stay above 60 degrees. The current record for November 7th is the 57 degrees set way back in 1912.
We should see temps fall back to near normal during the middle of the upcoming week before a slight rebound to above temps before much colder and below normal weather arrives by next Sunday. I suspect the 2nd half of November will average well below normal temps to balance off much of the early month warmth.

Speaking of improvements, 06z GEFS had it's highest mean snowfall yet for this storm. Also took a look at some airports in Nebraska panhandle and they look to be trending snowier too. Not sure if we have any members over there?

Personally, #26 doesn't look half bad.

That’s the problem with the SW!!   
We get accustomed to beautiful pleasant springs and falls and Boom! Winter slams into you and you’re left dazed, confused and freezing your tookus off!!

I have family in Tucson and they laugh at how dumb we are to live in hot humid Texas. But we have pluses they don’t.  I like visiting Az though. Nice people. Loads of beauty.

18z GEFS showing 10 days in a row with highs in the 20s. The move toward the Canadian ensembles is all but complete. Have to hand it to that ensemble suite and not wavering for a long time on projecting temps in the 20s.

Pretty impressive!

Age is only a number bud. 😉

I'm glad you brought up January 94 because I remember that winter like yesterday. A very cold winter that year in NYC w daytime highs in the single digits and lows below zero. For NYC standards, that is brutal. I had gone to a party one evening and I remember walking to my car (literally 2 blocks away) and had to get inside a building to warm up. My left eye had a blackish mark and yup, you guessed it ( frostbite). WCF in the -20s. I was layered up, but not fully. It was such a harsh winter w snow after snow. I remember we had snows in April and the the funny thing is that previous snows that had fallen back in November were still on the ground. So, as you can see, no melting occurred at all during that winter.  Ahh, the good ol' winters.

 

Haha easy for you to say. Just wait. A day is coming when you'll be trying to convince your (insert body part of choice) that it feels the same it had 40 years prior. Calm cold isn't rough but WC is bad.

Yesterday was yet another very warm early November day. The official H/L at Grand Rapids was 64/43 There was no rain fall and 65% of possible sunshine. That 64 was the 12th warmest November 6th on record at Grand Rapids. The overnight low here in MBY is the current temperature of 39 with clear skies. For today the average H/L is now down to 51/35. The record high of 71 was in 2020 and the record low of 14 was in 1991. The snow fall record of 6.0” was in 1951. Last year it was a mild 65/37. It looks like we have a 4 more days of warm to very warm (by November standards) before a pattern change for at least 2 weeks. There looks like there is a increasing chance of so good lake effect snows starting this weekend.  Of note the forecast high of around 70 for Thursday would be in the near record range. The record is 74 but no other time has it gotten to 70. So when the cold air gets here the lakes should be warm for this time of year. Of course the wind will bring up colder water.

One last mild day but with temps likely falling this afternoon following this morning's cold frontal passage. The next couple of days following today will see a return to normal temps....but this will feel chilly compared to the last 3 days of 70 degree plus temps. Tuesday and Wednesday will see highs in the mid 50's with lows in the 30's. Friday into Saturday looks like a soaking rain with some tropical storm Nicole influence. Following that it looks like the coldest weather of the fall will set in starting next Saturday night.
The record high for today is 75 degrees set in 1938. Our record low is 19 degrees set in 1960. The daily rainfall record is the 1.38" that fell today in 1932.

"Geek Alert"...the Monster European Ridge will be one of the key factors that weakens the PV as it migrates into Scandinavia.  Notice how both the Alaskan/Scandinavian Ridge "hook" up over the Top and form 2 main Vortex's in the Northern Hemisphere...One in Siberia and the other in North America.   Cross Polar Flow...Here we go!

I'll take a shot at another LR call around our Thanksgiving holiday and the pattern is looking prime for a west-based Greenland Block to develop.  There is a good LR signal for a -NAO to blossom and hold for quite a while into early DEC.  This would open the door for a Festive holiday period right when it starts to count!  Dreaming of a white Thanksgiving???

Looks like flakes will fly from LES next weekend and beyond.  Taking Thursday off to finish the outside cleanup.  Temps in Low 70's and then Fall is officially over for a while.  Should have some white ground by this time next week.  Right around our average first 1" of snow,  maybe a little early?

3.21 inches of rain Friday and Saturday in my part of KC followed by a dusting of snow Saturday morning.  Total of 4.53 inches in two storms 11 days a part. Just what  we needed after a drought set up shop back in June. 

 

Now....winter about to show up. Cold, lets see if we can score an early snow event. November snow has been rare in KC the last 10 years.

I went sort of quiet, yeah. Weather hasn't been as eventful, but Fall (and hopefully more rain!) returns in a few days. 

We had a few above average days, complete turn around from how we started Fall.

While yesterday was the coolest day so far this November it was still above average. The official H/L at Grand Rapids was 52/36. There was no rain fall and 100% of possible sunshine. The overnight low here in MBY reached 32 but has now got up to 37 with some clouds. It looks like the official overnight low at GRR was 34. For today the average H/L is 51/35 the record high of 74 was in 2020 and the record low of 16 was in 1976 and again in 1991. The most snow fall of 7.5” was in 1921. The next 3 days look to stay warm before we cool down over the weekend and then there is a chance of some snow in parts of west Michigan.

Happy Election Day!! Make sure you get out to vote!!
Much cooler today and tomorrow with temps running just a bit below average. Many spots will see freezing temps overnight tonight. Milder but with heavy rain Friday into early Saturday and then the coldest air of the season arrives by Saturday night.
The record high for today is 76 degrees in 1975. The record low is 17 degrees set in 1976. Our daily rainfall record is 2.53" from 1996. The daily snowfall record is 0.8" set in 1927.

DISCLAMER: All historical weather data analytics posted here is specifically for the climate of Chester County PA. We continually analyze the actual raw non-adjusted NWS certified Coop and spotter observed climate data for the county.  We make no post observation adjustments to any of the detailed analytics.  Unlike NOAA, we do not apply any post observation adjustments to the historical raw data from the NWS observers.  Climate change is natural and is not leading to future calamity. The only true “Climate Deniers” are people who think the climate should be unchanging. Specifically the Chester County PA analysis has only yielded normal and expected cyclical warming and cooling trends since the 1880's. Any model predictions of catastrophic climate change are not science. Pay little attention to data derived from climate models. To date we have yet to validate even one predicted climate or weather event attributable to climate change. Climate science is only advanced by continually questioning it and challenging it based on the actual climate data.

2nd Very Foggy morning.

We’ll have a muggy 80 today.  
It’s feeling like the temps want to flip to much cooler.  Should arrive for Thanksgiving.

Gonna waste the early cold in the lower Midwest with no storms.  Then it will get warm again for the last week of November and early December.  

Nov 2013 was similar. Unless you were fortunate to be in far SWMI (I was). There they got two nice LES events of 17" and 15" respectively. Elsewhere inland including my former backyard was just cold and brown until Dec 8th - the start of a truly epic winter.

This pic is on Dec 5th, 2004 in Astoria, Queens: This was after a mild November, which then turned abruptly colder by mid month and once December arrived, it really got snowy. This snowstorm dropped 16.4" in La Guardia. I remember I could not drive my car ( snow was too deep) to my house, so I had to walk.
