That will have Blizz singing Christmas Carols and handing out Hot Chocolate to all the government employees there. It does make perfect sense to have the areas temp authority sitting on the edge of water. (Snark)
Just model disco, Sat has a chance to be a real barn burner. As we are seeing today, Temps at MDT is tough to figure out sometimes but the latest it has ever reached 85 is Oct 23rd, 1947. Fair chance some NWS stations can get there Sat.
Yea, I figured it must be involved. As you mentioned, there is not much. Was just in in the sun and it is a summer day temp wise. LNS in the 80's now. 77 here.
MDT's high temp records the next 3 days are listed below. All 3 are in play (most progs show highs within 2-3 degrees or in the case of Sat, over the record) with Sat being the most likely to fall based on Meso's. Sat's Max low of 62 is also in play, IMO.
Thursday-79
Friday-82
Sat-80
That is some good mathin' there. After getting into the 70's yesterday, MDT has a chance... Monday is debatable... of seeing a 7 day stretch of 70 or over (with maybe more than one 80 in there.) I hope no one ever suggests the 70's are done in early October again. Seems to have cursed us. If they get 59.9 they will end up tied for 8th. 7th is way up there at 60.5.
