I remember blogging in late Sept. that the GFS had a +10degs. for the first 10 days of Oct.

Didn't Oct. 1990 kick off with mostly temps. in the 80's.  Could you post that data if I am correct.  ( I may have wrong year).

 

Between October 6-14 in 1990, 6 days had high temperatures of 80° or above in NYC. Also 13 of the first 15 days of October had high temperatures of 70° or above.

Warmest first 10 days of October across the area since 2007.

NYC....+9.3

LGA....+9.1

JFK.....+7.7

ISP.....+8.8

BDR...+8.5

EWR..+9.2

The humidity has been making it feel a lot worse too. If it was dry it would be okay, but we've been getting stuck under mostly cloudy skies with warm temps.

Why the next 8 days are becoming positively cold, average down to 62degs., but still a +4degs.

In addition the first 40 degree morning may occur before the record date of the 20th.

We will probably be down to +7degs. for the month by the20th.---still record territory.

Using the colder looking last 10 days of month outlook, I think we will finish Oct. near +5degs.

Another run on 80 degrees coming for this weekend and potentially the following weekend also. So two more very impressive warm ups over the next 10 days.

Yep.  Like I posted in banter, this cool down is just a blip in the torch pattern.  And like you've said, normal temps feel like way below as we'll see on Monday and Tuesday.

Yeah, the departures coming up will continue to be very impressive for this time of year. The normal high/low for the 15th is 64/50 and 62/48 on the 22nd.

All week looked like a beautiful weekend. Now all of a sudden it looks like clouds and rain. Unreal. Impossible to get two nice weekend days lately. It's maddening

at least here, it's a 20 to 30% chance of rain per Upton.  Give the dryness, I doubt we see much.

Do hurricanes coming toward the eastern US transport warm air masses with them? I've seen this written elsewhere as an excuse for the abnormally warm weather we've been having, but I don't understand how a couple of hurricanes can be responsible for the long term warmth we've had.

 

I thought a hurricane's track was a product of the upper air pattern already in place, not the other way around.

I think there's more to it than that.  The pattern in place for most of the summer simply flipped.   I'm sure the canes added some warmth, but that's usually transitory.
