The weather over the Lower 48 is pulling a radical switcheroo

They say, “If you don’t like the weather, wait 15 minutes.” For the next few days, the adage may not be that far from the truth. A dramatic seasonal reversal is set to scramble the air masses over the Lower 48, replacing summerlike warmth with chilly conditions in the West. The opposite will occur in the East as rather toasty temperatures overtake an acute autumn chill.

The national weather map has been a tale of a nation divided, with a highly amplified, or wavy, jet stream slicing across the heartland. The weather will remain split over the next week, but the warm and the cold will trade places. This will mean some remarkable temperature swings — in some places up to 70 degrees.

NOAA forecasts mild, dry winter for southern U.S., expanding drought
Amid this bifurcated weather pattern, dozens of records for heat, cold and even snow have already fallen. Marquette, Mich., saw its heaviest two-day snowfall observed in October. A whopping 18.1 inches fell between Monday and Tuesday, pasting the city with a sludge-like snow. Just days later, even the nighttime lows are above freezing, with daytime highs heading toward the mid-60s.

It's been 90 or so here in the Mohave Desert the past week, and the forecast high for tomorrow is <70.

We had temps in the 20s (22 one night) the last week, it is warm tonight, had a bonfire.

It's a regular winter wonderland out there, today, albeit the snow was extremely wet.

The western half of the U.S. just observed its coldest November in 22 years.

Eh... By a degree or two... This winter is by no means uncommon. In fact, it's fairly normal, with a nice fall, snow in time for hunting, and hard cold starting around Turkey Day.

Indeed. "Normal" weather for our area consists of occasional mild winters, occasional severe winters. This year we may get several feet of snow - or we won't - and there's not a darned thing we can do about it, either way.*

*I did get new tires yesterday, so at least I won't slide as much on snowy roads.

YUP... Just do like we do out here... Let it snow.

Trying to keep up with all the potential calamity indicators is exhausting.
