11/1- One week to Election Day...November starts Warm, Turns Chilly

Good Tuesday all-

Well, it's the new month! May November be all you want it to be and more- and remember that Thanksgiving is a paltry three weeks from Thursday! (Yes, 23 days from now...scary!)

The month begins with a very interesting array of temperatures. The next three days will be absolutely stunning, with temperatures going as high as ten to fifteen degrees above average- I think most towns get to 70 on Thursday, which is no small feat for early November. Skies will be partly cloudy throughout- and that is very welcome news as well. That said, our next system is an extremely strong cold front for Thursday afternoon, and we can expect some rain with it (though not too much) but it will send temperatures plummeting nearly thirty degrees. By the weekend, I think that most areas do not get out of the 40s, which is about ten degrees below average...so we're really on the coaster (though this in and of itself is not all that unusual for this time of year).

It is worth noting that there are strong signals of a cold and stormy pattern setting up about two weeks from now. As we are getting into the time of year when significant snow events are not unusual in Connecticut...we have to keep our eyes on this.

Both the Atlantic and Pacific are quiet as we begin the last month of the hurricane season.

Today in weather history- November 1- Not much has happened on this day worth noting, and not much is going to happen today so just enjoy your new month!
