Summerlike heat threatens records in western US as East rides temperature roller coaster

FOX Weather

The fall weather roller coaster is here.

While the eastern US deals with below average temperatures one day and above average the next, the West is expected to remain warm with temperatures 10 to 20 degrees above average.

The FOX Forecast Center attributes the gap in the weather to a major drop in the jet stream that has helped lead to some of the coldest air in the East since March.

Accompanying the cooler temperatures is an onslaught of dry air with dew points in the 30s and 40s, making the days feel quite crisp.

“Victoria and Beaumont (in Texas) are in the mid-40s, breaking the record set in 2001,” FOX Weather meteorologist Steve Bender said.

“They are not alone, as we have mentioned. You get into the Ohio Valley area all the way to the Southeast and the Florida Peninsula, and it runs about 10 to 20 degrees cooler.”

Cooler temperatures in Texas will be replaced by record heat, with cities like Houston and San Antonio seeing unusual warmth with highs in the 90s.

As a weak storm system moves through the midlands, many communities will see warming temperatures only to see the mercury drop below average again as the next fall cold front moves through.

Chicago, for example, will see only two of the next five days with temperatures near or above average.

While the East struggles with weather that forces many to don their jackets and coats, the western US is stuck in a summer-like regime with temperatures around 10 to 20 degrees above average.

New York will be the opposite, with two days below and three days above the normal evening high of 64 degrees.

While Florida has moderated some of its cold, Orlando and many other communities across the Sunshine State are expected to remain below their normal levels in mid-October.

Highs in Orlando are expected to stay near 80 degrees instead of reaching the usual mid-80s mark.

Record heat is expected in the West

While the East struggles with weather that forces many to don their jackets and coats, the western US is stuck in a summer-like regime with temperatures around 10 to 20 degrees above average.

One of the many communities feeling the heat is Phoenix, where temperatures could climb above the century mark for four of the next five days.

The Philadelphia Phillies head to Phoenix to face the Arizona Diamondbacks for games 3 and 4 (and Game 5, if necessary) of the National League Championship Series.

The roof at Downtown Phoenix’s Chase Field is expected to close for Game 3 on Thursday at 2:07 p.m. local time as temperatures are expected to climb above 100 degrees.

So anyone traveling from Philadelphia to the Desert Southwest should take precautions to avoid becoming a victim of heat-related illness.

A ridge of high pressure in the West isn’t just affecting the weather in Arizona, as at least a half-dozen states are expected to see communities hit record highs.

“And the kicker here is the extended period, with one exception,” said FOX meteorologist Britta Merwin.

“If you stay right along the Pacific, we get overland flow coming back on Friday.”

This means California’s Central Valley and the Desert Southwest are expected to remain warm through the end of the week and into the weekend.

“But if you live in Sacramento or if you live in Modesto, maybe you get in your car, drive out toward the (San Francisco) Bay Area because when you get into our beach communities, they’re going to be back to normal with 60 degrees. back to forecast for places like San Francisco by the time we get to Friday.”

Las Vegas, San Francisco, San Jose in California and Reno in Nevada are all expected to hit daily record highs this week.

“So you’re talking about maybe 20 different record breakers,” FOX meteorologist Adam Klotz said.

“Phoenix on 103, San Francisco in the mid-80s. Up and down the entire Pacific Northwest, you’re seeing a lot of places in the mid-80s, which is unheard of this time of year.”

And because of the potential for record-breaking heat, the National Weather Service issued a Heat Advisory that will remain in effect until Thursday.

The warning extends from north of the San Francisco Bay Area to around the King City, California area.

In Southern California, points east and south of Los Angeles are also under warning.

This includes cities like Chino, Hemet, Temecula and El Cajon.
