Yes, it’s October, but it seems Mother Nature hasn’t been checking the calendar lately.
Record high temperatures caused fall to be paused from Minnesota to Texas to Maine.
Keep flannels, sweaters and pumpkin spice lattes nearby.
Computer forecast models continue to show a rapid invasion of falling temperatures later this week and into the weekend.
NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center is even predicting the first frost of the season for some areas.
In most parts of the US, high temperatures could drop as much as 30 degrees between early this week and next weekend.
Talk about weather whiplash.
Heat records give way

A new storm and cold front, the leading edge of fresh Canadian air, is moving through the central US into the middle of the week.
Minneapolis will drop from a high of 92 on Sunday — an all-time record for October — to the lower 70s midweek and 50s for the weekend.
On average, August 27 is the last day Minneapolis reaches 90 degrees for the year. But not in 2023, as organizers were forced to cancel the Twin Cities Marathon for “Black Flag Conditions” on Sunday when temperatures soared into the low 90s.

Oct. 1 is usually the last day the Twin Cities reaches 80 degrees in an average year.
“Extreme and Dangerous Conditions: The latest weather forecast update projects record-setting heat conditions that do not allow for a safe event for runners, supporters and volunteers,” organizers wrote on the website.
Even Texas will feel a little relieved. Residents have been experiencing heat waves throughout the summer.

A cold front won’t bring much cold air to the Lone Star State, but thunderstorms with heavy rain will shield heat-weary conditions from the Sun to keep temperatures down.
After starting the week in the 90s, temperatures in Texas will drop into the 70s and 80s by midweek.
“In terms of temperature deviations from normal across the South, through the northern Plains here, 20 to 30 degrees above average,” FOX weather meteorologist Haley Meier said.

“Unfortunately, we may have to cover the flannel for at least the next few days. But notice at the tail end of the screen here on this monitor, the blue color, it’s going to go into that area, and we’re going to get the temperature back to normal.”
The Northeast will be the last region to feel the fall.
By this weekend, computer forecast models show a second shot of cold air filtering across the middle of the country and pushing east.
The models suggest that from Friday into the weekend, a secondary cold front could help to strengthen this remaining cold front, bringing with it another blast of Canadian cold air to much of the eastern US, according to the FOX Forecast Center.

However, the cooldown will not last long for the northern Plains. The CPC forecast puts the Northwest, northern and central Rockies and the northern Plains in the potentially warmer category for this weekend and early next week.
