Takes a little sting out of the 430 sunsets when it's gorgeous out and there's a week of 70s on tap

Looks like Boston came in just a smidge below the record for least cloudy month (of any month on record) 0.4% behind October just 2 years ago Via @joshtimlin

There's an outside chance of Boston hitting 70F 6 days in a row this Monday-Saturday The record for 70s in a row during November is 4 (in 2020 and 2022) Record for total 70s during the whole month is 6 Extremely mild stuff for the time of year, even if some of those days stay in the 60s

You can basically see the repetitive high pressure cycle all month on the calendar. Mildest return flow Thursdays and Fridays, cooler HP builds in on the weekends, rinse and repeat. Month will end up a bit milder than average in the area

We've been reduced to litigating wind direction as the most interesting part of the forecast ahead AI models have had the main cell high pressure south of us next week Euro has the stronger cell north of us Difference is just mild for the time of year (Euro), or exceptionally mild for the time of year (AI)

Might see Red Flag Warnings for brush fire risk tomorrow. They've been battling fires out in the Berkshires/Taconics...need to be careful with/avoid any outdoor flames on Friday. #wbz

Gonna be honest...not even sure there's much reason to keep it All we really need going forward is excellent high-res initialization data for AI modeling, at least for global-scale models Can't imagine why anyone would even look at the GFS on a daily basis
Sad news to report. 🇺🇸NOAA's global weather model GFS will not be upgraded this month, or next, but sometime in "late 2027" or maybe not at all. On the 14th anniversary, we should remind everyone that the "Euro nailed Sandy."

Another gorgeous October day in Boston The total lack of strong winds/rain has kept the foliage machine rolling along

One of the wildest few years of weather I can recall (2010-2013) Spring flooding in 2010 and Boxing Day Blizzard, then Springfield tornado, Irene and Snowtober in 2011, Sandy in 2012, Nemo in 2013
This week marks 15 years since the historic Northeast snowstorm of October 2011.

About as good as it gets for late October tomorrow. Sunshine and 70F with a nice breeze. Make some outdoor plans! #wbz

I assume we will pay for this at some point but man what an amazing stretch we've had. Another week of it on tap. #wbz
