Next 5 days of back and forth looks to average near normal before the pattern warms going into November.

Pretty impressive reversal from the norm with the historic east based El Niño focusing the heaviest rains relative to the means around San Diego this month. So San Diego is getting the least San Diego-like weather during October from what is normal for them outside El Niños. The CONUS has been getting an unusually warm October pattern for such a strong El Niño.

For what it's worth, it appears that the AIFS has been running warmer than the traditional ECMWF when it comes to daytime temperatures. Whether this is temporary with the new 0.1° ECMWF grid or something persistent remains to be seen.

Here's an example from New York City from the 10/22 0z cycle (similar differences were also present in the 6z cycle):

For comparison, the NBM high-low values for October 22 (today) were 65°-47°.

We can roll with it. Growing season is mostly done. Plenty of rainy 50 degree days coming.

I'm loving it.   My sons finishing up high school soccer-nice to not sit in the rain or mist
