After this morning's "sprinkle" event with 0.01" of rain here in East Nantmeal Township that ended our dry streak at 32 days we clear up this afternoon and turn windier and chillier. A slightly chillier than normal weekend ahead before we warm back up to near 70 degrees by Election Day next Tuesday. We cool a bit again by the end of the first week in November.
Ya, it looks like my area into So Cal/4 corners will be stealing the cooler/colder weather...I'll say this though, as long as the parade of storms systems keep digging like they are, it will certainly bode well for the majority of our Sub in the central/southern areas and into the lower lakes/OHV. It appears to me, that a LRC Hot Spot is setting up right in the heart of the LRC when it really counts.
In due time, the STJ fires up and shifts south and we could be seriously looking at a firehouse pattern when this cycles through in the colder months. This SW Flow pattern that has just set up this week looks like it has the potential to be a Long Duration moist and active 10+ day pattern. Maybe even longer? Like you said in an earlier post, you guys have had a wonderful Autumn. My sister agrees with you! Keep the cold when it counts and let me area take a break from the Heat and Above normal temps for a change!
Here is CPC's take...
