much different than the Euro which surges more warmth into the east coast 10/10 - beyond with a strong ridge into MS valley. Maybe a middle ground near / above normal is a good compromise at this point.

6Z GFS says the last day over 70 is this Tuesday for the duration of the run.

We are going be close to 15 degrees above normal highs this weekend.

Another over the top warm up this weekend with the record 90° heat forecast for MSP while we stay in the 80s.

Right, I don't either, I consider an inch or more a good dousing. I kind of overstated due to enthusiasm and all the dryness this past summer.

Pretty crazy how closely 2015 matches to this season

Even last night was only 45. By the time I left the house at 5:50 there was already a breeze and temp rising.

Some of our colder valley locations again saw low temperatures this morning in the upper 30's with most other spots remaining in the lower 40's. A beautiful stretch of weather through Tuesday with temperatures near normal for early October today with highs in the upper 60's to near 70 degrees. We warm up to above normal tomorrow through Tuesday. Shower chances arrive on Tuesday night with a cold front which will turn us sharply cooler again by later next week.

Yeah I don’t consider .25” a good dousing. I guess it’s subjective.

Just to put in perspective, it was 46F for a low on August 30th. Not very impressive for October 3rd.

48° this morning!

Was 43 here when I left my house.

Edit - I looked too quickly. Now I see 33 in Keene. We do get a little cooler here with radiational cooling. My last sentence still stands...ha. Huh, was I hallucinating this morning? First, rain chance gets nixed by some party pooper, now low in that graphic says 37F here, when I woke up to 31F (KEEN, closest station). We vary a little (lower elevation on CT Rive, 300 ft. above sea level). More coffee, please, or something stronger?

45F for low in Lancaster.

44.0 in Muttontown & 45.1 in Syosset.

49 / 48 clear. Warming today to the 70s quickly from morning lows. Sat - Tue very warm low - mid 80s in the warmest spots, perhaps some areas get 86-87 on Mon/Tue but shy of records which are upper 80s/90s in the period.. Front overnight Tue / into Wed brings some rain. Cooler - near normal Wed (10/7) - Fri. Euro others warmer by the 10th, GFS the coolest. Overall looks near / above normal beyond there.

36.9 for the low here.

Oh. NWS Keene says 70 percent chance of showers for, I think Tuesday night for here in Brattleboro. Discussion last night said upwards of .25 inch. Have not read the discussion this morning but hey, we have you and others here...;). Will read it next...thanks!

Side piece?

Mins…close at CON and EEN but we grow on

More like parade of lakes cutters/redevelopers.
