If we go 45F below average our high would be 25F, I'd run away to Florida. |

I'll vouch for the cooler, first it was damp and rainy in Iowa on Thursday, Friday quite chilly, and snow on Saturday morning!
I don't have an answer but it has been cooler than normal for the first 10 days of October where I am and where I was this weekend!  |

I've noticed that your early autumn has been quite chilly by normal standards. Did your panhandle end up getting snow or ice? TWC was predicting it. I was shocked.

45 F below average here would be about 15 F.
That's pretty darn cold for a high even for January, imho. |

I heard they reported snow but I don't believe anything stuck. It's really hard to get any reports from out there. The panhandle almost always gets flurries in October, this was more significant than normal I believe. Of course it's all altitude, being 2,000 - 5,000ft above sea level. |

The coldest day in Baseball history was played last night in CO. I watched some because it was the Phillies......but mostly because I wanted to see how cold it was. Gosh, they were all so freezing.

I was watching the Broncos/Pats game and it did look pretty cold. People in the stands with winter jackets and hats in mid October .. brrr.
I don't understand how they can play football in Miami, though. Huge guys in all that gear playing the most physical sport... they must be dying out there. |

Miami's summer weather is no worse for playing football than say Green Bay in November, imho. 
I find it much more frightening the idea of playing football when it's below 25 F (-4 C)
compared to when the heat index is just above 105 F. (40 C)  |

Actually a lot of players (linemen especially) would still be playing in short sleeves even in freezing weather.
