MIKEKC Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 The 12z GFS suggests you can open the pool back up here in KC early next week. 80's!!! Currently 6 degrees above average for October and that number looks to climb. Stormy winter in KC, but rain? Hard cutters, warm side of storms.

Last year, we had the earliest 32F low in many years which helped give us a brilliant color season. This year we are at least a month behind. So far behind, that the NWS office isn't even talking up the lack of frost(s) or freezes.

Officially that is the coldest low so far this fall season the last time it has gotten this cold at GRR was on June 22 when the low was also 41. It is also the 1st time since June 21st to the 23rd that it has gotten into the 40's 3 nights in a row. The current temperature here is that 40 with clear skies.

snowstorm83 Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Still no freeze at KLNK, which is impressive considering it’s about ideal for radiational cooling as it gets (avg is oct 7th). Would not be surprised if it’s not until at least November for most of the city even if LNK freezes before then. 2 Quote Snowfall in Lincoln, NE: 2017-18: 21.4" 2018-19: 55.5" 2019-20: 17.6" 2020-21: 49.4" 2021-22: 5.1" Average: 26" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted October 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Back in biz! After years of using Windows, I made the switch to a Macbook Pro and I'm extremely pleased. The only caveat will be getting used to using the OS which will take some time. Anyway, what a glorious day it was yesterday. It reminded me of a nice autumn day in AZ in the month of Nov with blue skies and a high of 72F. Another stunner shaping up for today before big changes later in the week. I'm sure the furnace will be on for a few days this week. It's time. Ready to track? A series of storm systems are poised to track across the Sub underneath an expansive Hudson Bay Block. I gotta say, this is a beauty of a 500mb pattern when we fast forward to the Winter season. #seedthecold So, the long awaited trough is poised to roll on through this weekend before a brief ridge builds in early next week, but then is a potentially big Halloween storm brewing?? Wintry implications as we close out Oct and open Nov??? It may be so for those across the north and possible high Plains. Looking out farther, the Euro weeklies are continuing to suggest a pattern change as the EPO heads negative/neutral as the PNA relaxes. High lat blocking locks in for a while as a -AO/-NAO sets up. I'll post these maps here instead of the Autumn discussions. Is Winter lurking for the lower 48??? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last few days I've been watching a storm around Halloween and the EC has been real close to pulling in enough cold air for snow, last night it did it. I hope this is a start to a colder trend but we will have to wait and see. But we have another 4 or 5 storms to track to close out the month which is great! 6z GFS is joining in 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You better not give me a beautiful storm track this winter and no cold....I'll be patient KC has had snow and cold in 3 straight Octobers leading up to this year and it has translated into a whole lot of not much for those Winters. Very little cold in fact with the exception of last February. I think what's important going forward are the amount and strength of storms, the blocking setting up, and the fact storms are strengthening in our area. Look at the big picture (esp the 500mb maps) and keep an eye on those teleconnections going forward. So far (and it's very early) I think KC could have a much better Winter than what we've had recently. Good luck buddy and go CHIEFS! 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralNebWeather Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Very quiet stretch of weather around here. Regular season of HS football is ending this week, and the weather looks amazing for those games. Our school has Parent Teacher Conferences today and tomorrow with our Fall Break Thursday and Friday. Great time later this week to mulch some leaves. Farmers have had one of the best autumns to pick that they can remember. Sounds like a bumper crop is being harvested according to friends and relatives. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james1976 Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Glad you're back to the norm @Tom Been a quiet few days but we get active again tomorrow. A low should track close to the IA/MN border with some convection possible. Gets much colder behind this system. 50s to finish out the week with frost/freeze looking more like Saturday AM. Halloween storm would be awesome! Too bad its 11-12 days out. Interesting how long range models are in some agreement on it though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKEKC Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Clinton....after we finish the first 3 weeks of the new LRC, we will be 6-8 degrees above average on temps from OCT. 6th(first day of the new LRC) to OCT. 31st. Looks to be a very warm finish overall to OCT. according to the current data. Too much ridging following the storm systems and no real dump of cold air. I know, its October, I don;t expect 30's for highs. But, we really have not been anywhere close to cold. Yes, cold fronts and I understand in Dec. and Jan. when we cycle back these fronts that will be colder given the time of year. Following Lezak for years, he always mentions that the "colder part of the pattern will return" or the "warmer/drier part of the pattern will return" according to the LRC. Aren't you concerned about the first 3 weeks of the LRC being too warm. Yes, beautiful storm tracks the first 10 days and it appears more storms are a coming.. Above average now is 70-80 degrees...above average in Dec. is 35-45, so, if the pattern that produced well above average temps cycles, wouldn't it cycle the same in the winter. Good example, last year. we had a 10-15 day stretch in October that was well below average on temps and it produced the early season snows for many. When that part of the pattern cycled, it produced colder than normal temps and when it hit in Feb. the stars aligned, we had record cold across the country. Given what we have seen so far and the very warm data for the next 2 weeks, where would a colder than average pattern set up? Time we get to early Nov. the LRC will be 4 weeks old and a very warm 4 weeks old. YES! Go Chiefs, but, after watching that shootout last night and D. Henry going off, how do you propose we stop him. Our defense stinks! Mahomes will need to score 35-45 points next week to win. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our defense stinks! Mahomes will need to score 35-45 points next week to win. This is where I think Gary does a poor job of explaining the LRC to folks and I remember back on his blog some would challenge him on things like this and he didn't like it. I look where blocking sets up and longwave troughs and mean ridges. So far I don't see many negatives as far as they are concerned. We have currently had a -PNA as we go on through the fall that will likely not be the case very often as LaNina has more of an influence. The MJO has spent most of the month in the warm phase but is currently tracking towards the colder phase 8. The blocking that we've had would suggest that most of the Winter will have a -AO and NAO which tends to strengthen the jet stream and allow artic air to filter down. These teleconnections are all wild cards and I do not believe the LRC has any influence on them. I do however believe that they influence the LRC. The LRC is great at letting us now when storms are likely to occure and where they may track and strengthen but not so much on what the conditions will be when they do. That is why its so hard to make a prediction more than 30 days out. Hope this helps and the Chiefs better buck up and stop King Henry! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Lansing the mean is 64.1 for a departure of +10.6. To the east at Flint the mean is 64.1 for a departure of +11.9 at Saginaw the mean of 63.5 is good for a departure of +10.2 UP north at Alpena their mean of 60.0 is good for a departure of +10.2. At the Sault their mean of 61.2 is a departure of +12.2 and at Marquette their mean of 57.4 is a departure of +11.2.

Tom Posted October 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 The models are digesting the strength of the Hudson Bay block for next week. This, IMO, is going to be a strong LRC exhibit in future cycles. In previous days, the Euro had the early week system next week fading into the flow but in recent runs it has suddenly trended towards another "bowling ball" system. I like the fact it maintains the strength of the system as it heads due west/east and is poised to soak the MW/OHV again. Before then, however, who's ready for some frosty mornings this weekend? Another picture perfect Autumn weekend on tap around the region. 0z Euro/EPS is quite wet for the MO/KC region and points east... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westMJim Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 I am getting the yard ready for the winter season. Yesterday I kind of cleaned up the garage and put the cover on the outside part of the AC this is by far the latest that I have done that. I also have dug up the gladiolus and will get them ready for winter storage. Today I will dig up the elephant ear plants. It was a very good year for my elephant ears and they grew up to almost 5 feet tall. I have plants in pots that I will keep as long as possible. I will also cut the grass again today. The grass is still growing very good almost like it would in the spring. One thing so far this year no raking the leaves yet. Not sure when that will happen. It might be a while yet at the coldest it has gotten here at my house is 39. While we wait for that first 32° It was just in 2016 when the first low of 32 did not happen until November 12th. At this time it is clear and 59 here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james1976 Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 Thick clouds and the temp has dropped to 63. I might struggle to hit 50 tomorrow and Friday. 28 in the grids now for Saturday morning! I'm hoping for a hard freeze. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Grizzcoat Posted October 21, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 21, 2021 I know this is a weather forum - but figured I'd share that today my 10th grader qualified for the Iowa High School Boys State Cross Country meet next weekend in Fort Dodge. His team qualified and so did he as an individual running a 16:42 over a moderate 5KM course finishing 11th overall. 11 Quote The two loudest sounds known to man: a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and a gun that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.
