LONG RANGE OUTLOOK FOR NOVEMBER 2022
Note: With how unusually warm the first few days of November look to be in the Northland, the odds favor warmer than normal temperatures as a whole for the month, but there are growing risks for colder temperatures at least during the 2nd week of November, but whether or not that carries over into mid to late November is uncertain, as is the level of cold, will it be enough to erase the huge positive temperature anomalies which will likely be in place after the 1st week of November, or will the cold be transient? Time will tell.
