You missed the joke, my friend.

Another: https://x.com/bam_weather/status/1976018470933336268?s=61 tune in.

Can’t say I know too much about him. But on the 50 trucking terminal sites I manage for snow in New Jersey and Philly he’s usually excellent at medium and short range. Would also add his outlook is in line with most others. But to each his own with respect to whom you value. I have no preference just providing a general cross section of outlooks I come across

https://nynjpaweather.com/winter-forecast-for-december-2025-through-february-2026/ another low key analysis of the upcoming thoughts on winter from east coast centric forecaster, but with a national section as well. No hype.

I may have to start posting BAM winter outlooks soon.

Could argue the switch to highs in the 40’s and 50’s this week is a bit of surprise and a shock to the system.

I’ll take 3 of these November, December, January and February.

50/50 shot is a can’t miss proposition.

The precip map for this was good for a large part of the forum. 50/50 chance of above or below average precipitation as I recall.

Not sure where to put these. But I’ve always liked this guys toned down straight forward approach. https://x.com/weatherwilly/status/1978632840305631546?s=61 he is east coast centric, though outlook is relevant here.

You will not get an argument from me that one can post anything now a days and data can be skewed to support multiple sides of a debate. Although, it would be hard to argue it has been an unusually pleasant week in many midwest locales for the last week of August. Remove the jargon listed above and think of how many people recall sweltering as the kids headed back to school and how refreshing this is as a contrast. And it does appear Lexington, KY did set a record for chill: NWS Louisville @NWSLouisville · 9h As of 5:15 AM, Blue Grass Field in Lexington has hit a low of 46 degrees (it may go colder!). This breaks the daily record of 49 from 1968. It is the lowest August temperature in Lexington since August 29th, 1986. #kywx

Left home several years back and it was near a 100 at home to see a concert at Ravinia on the lake 30 miles asway. Ended up buying sweatshirts in mid July for the wife and I. Brutal.

on cue:A MIDDLE LEVEL SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE FROM THE DAKOTAS TOWARD LAKE SUPERIOR AND POTENTIALLY SEND A MCS WEST TO EAST JUST NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA OVER WISCONSIN. WHILE BOTH SATURDAY AND SUNDAY ARE EXPECTED TO BE DRY, THERE IS STILL UNCERTAINTY ON THIS STORMS TRACK AND ITS INFLUENCE IN NORTHERN ILLINOIS. FOR NOW, IT WAS DECIDED NOT TO ISSUE ANY EXCESSIVE HEAT PRODUCTS FOR THE WEEKEND. -LOT

unexpected convection and blow off cirrus will keep it in check....almost always does. It'll feel like summer,and the lighting bugs will prosper. Good stuff.

Keep it moving north. Going to be in southern wisconsin on a short lake vacation. I'll take the sun and warmth.

Update: Froze my azz off in my upper deck seat with no sun. Outside beer deck in the sun was warm and beautiful. Two different days 40'apart.

Memorial Day. Off to wrigley to see Cubs vs. Rockies. Might be 60 with some cloud cover. But I'll survive.

next winter's cold is already being wasted.

Dust storm in Chicago......Climate Changer

Ain't gonna lie, the Spartman posts for Memorial Day have me spooked. We're due for an ugly one.
