I normally take the top 5 years, but two of the years were on there twice, so I expanded it to the top 7. If we go back and look at those years, November featured a pretty big trough…<\/p>\n
That trough REALLY deepened for the following December…<\/p>\n Ok… some quick thoughts on the short term weather.<\/p>\n Highs today will stay in the 40s under mainly sunny skies. Saturday starts frigid with temps in the 20s and ends with some clouds increasing and temps in the low 50s.<\/p>\n A cold front arrives Sunday with a reinforcing shot of chill…<\/p>\n That front may have a few showers with it, but a lot of the area will stay dry. Highs will be closer to the 50 degree mark with an improving afternoon sky.<\/p>\n We will mild it up for a few days early next week before we get in on a big storm system. How this all evolves is still to be determined, but the GFS has a lot of wind and rain with crashing temps…<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>There’s a lot of cold showing up from the similar years to the one the models are forecasting for November 1st. While I’m not ready to put the winter forecast together… I will say this. I will be surprised if we get through this winter without setting record lows. Lexington hasn’t had a record low during the winter since February of 1996. I think that streak ends this winter. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
