Pattern Hotober

Do not be surprised if the GFS shows even more bullish temperatures.
1. It has been digging further south (close to a cutoff low)
2. It has been trending more positive, means that it will take longer to shift negative (flat trough)
Edit: At least for the Rockies. Figures as It moves to the southeast, it gets stuck behind a ridge and quickly turns negatively tilted as it doesn't meet up with a low in the Atlantic.

Soundings just for fun outa Mississippi next week, that’s a nice hodo with a nice critical angle that would allow supercellular mesocyclones to wrap around nicely /occlude, even with somewhat low SRH58E754B4-7D0F-4093-9CBE-34C5DBDD5CB0.png
 
Charlotte experienced a nearly sixty degree temperature swing during the October 1954 heatwave. The temperature rebounded to 91° on the 13th. Hurricane Hazel followed two days later.

10/07/54........72.0°/46.0°

please let it snow in October, those give us our best winters!! The sea ice growth, is already in our favor, blockbuster winter incoming!???
NO SNOW FOR BRYCE! Like this post if you agree.
 
NWS says cloud cover all day Saturday. That should keep us below 70, easy.
 
That backdoor front making serious progress SW, temp only 77 imby and 91 at RDU.... hang on it's coming.
 
Noon temps over N GA are averaging only 1 cooler than 24 hours ago. So, it is another incredibly hot day there.
Sorry to rub salt in the wound but that backdoor cold front has done work here, stiff NE breeze, lower DP's, a little overcast and temp steady at 77. That forecast high of 88 in real jeopardy here today.
 
It's happening!!! LOL! Finally we get to see some wild fantasy runs.

Some props to the GFS (or FV3, whatever you want to call it). I think it was the first to lock in on the idea of the CAD/backdoor cold front for this weekend. and it did so honestly I think even earlier than 140-150 hours. Only difference was it was pushed off to Saturday and probably wasn't totally "on" because of a cold bias, but the CAD solution is going to happen.

Maybe another blind squirrel finding a nut, but I'm thankful we're going to have the CAD. These last days of the heat were unbearable.
