I'm in Lake City. I remember that morning. No hail here, but lots of lightning and various midlevel pop-up showers. Do you remember how big the hailstones were?

There were reports of 1/2” hail in Ballard which was about what I measured.  What was odd was that it was a small storm in width and was still sunny out the entire time as the storm passed over.

Yuck. Both 00z GFS, GEM look like this.... King EURO will lead the way hard to argue against the improving/colder EPS.

Definitely hard to argue with the EPS.

Definitely a step back. That’s fine. Hold off on the cold and snow until mid Nov when we can “realistically” expect it down this way.

3.5 inches of rain at SEA in the last 26 days... and will probably be +5 inches for the year after today.

Got down to 44 here this morning. Quite chilly. First time having to turn the heat on in the house this season.

Turned on the furnace this morning here too.

1.88" so far this month. Close to average to date. 

Looks like Jim jinxed us yet again. Looks like a cold October for the Great Lakes.

Wow.  The GFS has turned into an utter horror show for the possible cold snap.  One thing I will say is some details of the evolution were different than any cold snap I can remember actually happening.  That probably should have been an alarm bell on this.  The 6z EPS was still ok, but not as good as earlier runs.  It looks possible this will be an epic cold October in the eastern half of the country and quite warm in the West.  Not exactly what one would expect with a raging Nina.  I guess we're just going to have to wait until the wavelength change comes later in the year.  At some point it is likely we will see a reversal.

It's called clown range for a reason.

It appears 1942 and 1988 are the closest analogs to this year as far as strong first year Nina with a warm October.  Both got epic later on.  I'm pretty disappointed with this month though.  I guess there is still time for something good late in the month.
