Not anything specifically on here... just the idea that some extra CO2 might be nice during the next ice age or volcanic fall out. :)

NWS going for a low of 20 at Eugene tomorrow night. 

 

So I was thinking. If Salem ends up in 4th place for coldest October behind 1893, 1919, and 1949, well.... There is some decent cherry picking material there. 

 

Looking those years. October 1919 was pretty insane. 16 sub freezing lows at SLE. Average low of 32.9. It was about 2.5F colder than 1893 which is the 2nd coldest October.

 

1893 was pretty wet. Almost 8" of rain at SLE. 1919 was very dry. 1949 was a little drier than average. Very similar to this October except it ended on a warm note.

Gfs showing a cold airmass moving in from the north now on the 18z around hour 240, completely different from the 12z.

 

Looks like a November 2014 redux about to happen there...

Is it just me or do we sometimes go entire winters without airmasses this cold hitting the continental US. A bit of an exaggeration there, but good grief.

Temp has been steadily sitting at 48 for a couple hours now. Looking like it’s going to end up a 48/32 day today. Should be some interesting min/max temps here the next few days too. Few days ago I wasn’t even sure we would see a low below freezing now it looks like tomorrow will be about 30-32 and Wednesday morning 27-30 degrees or so.

My projects require a minimum of 3 additional trips to the local hardware store. After my first trip, the clerks know me well enough to ask, "see you later today?"

 

"Yep."

 

I have a numeric rating system for how difficult a home-improvement project is. It is merely a count of the number of trips to the hardware store it involves. If a project is a 2, I am very happy. It is almost never a 1.

A little windy between those two points as well!

Going to get windy tonight here in our area. We’re right in the path of the outflow winds from the east.

Your son is being a little b*tch.

Totally.

 

But he is conservative by nature and hates his wussy generation.

 

Unfortunately he is not super excited about being cold.   Idiot.     I told him that being cold is by far the greatest and most important thing in world.    Bar none.    He does not listen to me though. :)
