Parana to SE Minas Gerais corn/soy/sugar/wheat likely remain the focus for surplus moisture through early November. commoditywx.com/news/2026102…

IA remains 20% behind normal on corn harvest; KS wheat seeding advanced notably in this week's USDA crop progress report. commoditywx.com/news/2026102…

Unlike last year at this time, Euro weeklies keep Pacific split flow going into early December, keeping Canada very warm, and probably not warm enough for Lower 48. Powerful El Niño influences seen to continue.

Super El Niño, with a dash of strong -PDO, is deflecting stratospheric warming influences for North America. Strong Pacific jet stream flow undercuts blocking efforts in the North Pacific.

Earliest SSW in recorded history is forecast next week, with near real-time impacts for colder European trends, as Arctic and North Atlantic Oscillations veer negative.

Massive medium-range modeling demand losses this past weekend, as November kicks off momentum to potentially be warmest on record.

Watching unusually early first-of-season stratospheric warming in Northern Hemisphere. But this year's super El Niño could significantly outweigh anything else, such as this factor.

AI ensemble clusters show more support for continued warm to very warm pattern deep into 1st week of November for Midwest, East. and South.

Another late 11-15 day pattern battle between traditional (NWP) models, including the European, and the AI models. Pacific pattern looks warmer/bearish with troughing into the West Coast.

Record-breaking, super El Niño still on track to peak in Nov-Dec, but maintain its super-status through winter months.

End of 11-15 day is inside the first week of November, and all-ensemble mean/clusters in good agreement on continued strong Pacific jet influence for warm Lower 48 pattern.

Models lose U.S. heating demand over past 24 hours with warmer changes for East, South, and Midwest.

Should see lot of this this winter thanks to super El Niño: very strong Pacific jet stream influence on U.S. pattern.

11-15 day 2-meter temperature departures ensemble clustering: more warmer than not options yet again.

Models agree on warm-prevailing national pattern for late Oct into early Nov, but AI models are warmer on East Coast than traditional NWP guidance.

Odds are high for the developing wet pattern in Paraguay soy to persist this season based on strong El Niño analogs, although similar cases did not encounter yield risks. commoditywx.com/news/2026101…

Teleconnection shifts in the 11-15 day need a little more help to support critical rains for France wheat. commoditywx.com/news/2026101…

Persistently-positive ABNA, WPO, and especially GLAAM, thanks to Super-Niño, continues to fuel very warm Q4 narrative for Lower 48.

October is on track for 3rd warmest on record for U.S. heating demand. This is only month that pre-2000s year holds top spot for warmest: 1963.

More 11-15 day model debate, but warm to very warm Eastern U.S. lead clusters look most reasonable.
