CentralNebWeather Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 Looks like the temp has bottomed out at 32 or 33 degrees depending on the weather app that I check. I think I have 6 of them . As the sun starts to come up, I see some frost on the rooftops and some on the top of cars. Obviously not a killing frost or freeze. Might get in the upper 20's range Saturday morning. Had to put on the jacket this morning. It was awesome. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westMJim Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 Fun facts. It is now October 14th and so far this fall season at Grand Rapids the coldest it has been is 47. This is the latest it has gone without reaching 46, 45 and 44 (October 8, 2016) 43, 42 (October 11, 1931) and 41 (October 13, 1934) the next milestone would be 40 the latest for that is October 24th 1914.The latest first 39 low is October 24th 2017. The average 1st 32 low is October 13th the latest is November 14th 1918. and for the latest hard freeze (28) is November 29th 1948. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northland09 Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 Still no hard freeze in our area yet. To be honest, I'm kind of liking it. Haven't had time to pull what I need to out of my garden before it hits. I'm hoping I can get around to that early next week before it does! I can't believe it's already the middle of October and we're still as warm as we are. We are taking full advantage of it with our business, but we have to keep reminding ourselves that it all could come to a screaming halt anytime (which I have a feeling it will hit us quick and hard when it does). As long as we can finish up just a couple more landscape jobs and I can find the time to get things in order around the house before it hits, life will be peachy. On a side note, I'm kind of bummed because I haven't seen my wooly caterpillar yet this year It is the one sign of nature that has never proved me wrong yet for winters, even as much as I would like to disagree with them on some winters. Hoping I find one in the garden or my flower beds like I typically do when I clean them up for the year. Otherwise it will mark the first time in about 7 years I haven't come across one, which will leave me guessing what this winter may hold according to the wooly's! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, I watched this episode on the History Channel about this flight and was very intrigued by the mystery of the disappearance. There are so many incidents as such that happen around the world and to have it occur close to our back yard is interesting. Your mind tends to wonder what the heck happened? How could you not find any wreckage if it did crash? Its crazy to think if this plane entered some portal or something to that nature. This eye witness account from a retired Navy commander may be a clue to that idea: Quote A retired Navy commander sees the lights of an airplane heading southwest out over the Lake. He then sees a brilliant flash of lightning then a red and white flash where the plane had been. He estimates that this occurred 15 to 20 miles offshore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted October 15, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2021 Last night's model runs were fascinating for many reasons, one of which, shows a "bowling ball" system coming out of the CO Rockies into the Plains/MW later next week and could possibly phase with a trough heading due S out of Canada (thanks to the West-Based Greenland Block)...Fujiwhara in the works??? One thing is for certain, the Blocking setting up this season is eye candy. What happened to the warmth to finish off October??? It's starting to dwindle away... 0z GFS op run from last night, along with the Euro, both show a strong trough entering N Cali/OR area and track literally due E bc of the immense blocking up top. It's just a hunch, but starting next week and for the following 1-2 weeks (or longer) this long period may be referred to as the "Bowling Ball Exhibit" for the new developing LRC. We have got ourselves quite a beautiful pattern folks. The Euro is farther west with the colder temps compared to the GFS for next week...needless to say, the blocking developing and locking next week "over the top" is going to LOCK.

westMJim Posted October 15, 2021 Report Share Posted October 15, 2021 One of the issues I have with CoCoRahs is that the rain fall reports are mostly due in at 7AM (in the fall and winter I am many times late as I do not get up all the time before 8 or even 9 AM) while the official end of the day reports are taken at 12 midnight. And of course it is hard to match the two up. My report for today is 0.12" At this time it is clear and 52 here at my house. So far this month all 14 days have been much warmer than average and at Grand Rapids the last 19 days in a row have been above average. And in that time there have been 15 days over 70 with one day reaching 80. The have been 8 days with lows of 60 or better and the coldest it has been this fall season so far is just 47.

Niko Posted October 15, 2021 Report Share Posted October 15, 2021 Quite of bit of moisture coming towards SMI. Temps are in the cool upper 50s. Looks like rain will be the deal for the remainder of the day. 1 Quote Snowfall for Winter 2023 -24 for Metro Detroit Area Oct 2023: 0.2" AN Nov 2023: 2.2" AN Dec 2023: 0.5" BN Insane!

This is Storm Stories combined with The History Channel, combined with Unsolved Mysteries. This marries several topics I've always been drawn to. I had no idea GRR created this last summer during the C-19 lock-down. It may be the best thing to ever come out of that office, at least imho. If you're not familiar with this unsolved history/mystery (to my knowledge they have never found the wreckage nor one single soul that was tragically lost) it has only come onto my own radar screen (see what I did there?) in the past decade or so and I've basically been a native Michigander forever, lol. Anyways, don't miss clicking on the green dots (see map) for eye-witness accounts. 1950 seems like ancient history, so I didn't think there was that much air traffic back then. It just surprised me after reading this. https://noaa.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapJournal/index.html?appid=f2ac6d3534244103a166e01473d9a1e3 The simulated radar in the story is crazy. I've never seen a squall line like that drop straight south. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minny_Weather Posted October 15, 2021 Report Share Posted October 15, 2021 KFAR is actually at approximately 133% of normal precip since September 1. What a change. Still at about 70% on the year, which is way better than the nearly 50% it was at the peak of the drought. Rivers are flowing again! 7 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmahaSnowFan Posted October 15, 2021 Report Share Posted October 15, 2021 I would have to say today is the first day it truly felt like a fall day. We've had some mornings that were just as chilly as this morning (40 degrees), but today it's struggled to make it to 60 and there's been a chilly NW breeze all day. A few leaves are finally starting to fall as well. 12Z Euro with exactly 0.00" of precip for eastern Nebraska the next 10 days and highs 20-25 degrees above normal again by the end of the run. 12Z GFS is a little more generous with about 1/4-1/2" of precip next 16 days with most days above average through the end of the month. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
