I'm ok if we start torching towards the end of October into Nov. From my experience it will translate into a cold and snowy winter for us especially when in -ENSO conditions.
7amEST temps. Snowing in Idaho & Wyoming. I see Teens and 20s on the map. Teens in October I never experienced let alone Mid October.. I'd like to get below 45° for now. lol
A look at the Upper heights/Jet Stream and temps at 5000'. Nice dip in the West...AGAIN
Forecast high of 92F here today, which would tie the daily record max. Cold front coming tomorrow which will bring a low chance of t-storms. Monday and Tuesday look pretty nice, with coolest temps so far this fall.
A bit surprised we're only in D0, but looks like they are still accounting for heavy rainfall we had in late August from Harvey.

In northern Mississippi, indicators such as DNPs and SPIs out to 6-months, and stream flows generally below-normal for at least the past 28-days, prompted the introduction of D0 across parts of Lafayette, Union, Pontotoc, and Benton counties. Deteriorating conditions justified widespread expansion of D0 across much of central Mississippi and northeastern Louisiana. An area of moderate drought (D1) was added to the depiction in eastern Mississippi. A challenge for this week’s U.S. Drought Monitor involves trying to balance a mixture of shorter-term intense dryness (Louisiana recently reported its driest September on record) with some wetness in the 45-60 day timeframe associated with Hurricane Harvey. In southwestern Arkansas, it was decided to hold off a bit longer on introducing severe drought (D2) to the region, though some drought indicators are pointing in that direction.
