It's Election Day and fortunately, the weather doesn't look too bad for getting out to vote. Sure, it will be a little on the cool side, but at least the wind has gone down for a little while. November is a month where we start getting some pretty significant cold blasts of air coming down from the north, and we will discuss that in just a second. First, look at some stats for this month.
The average high at the beginning of November is around 63, but by the 30th, our normal high is back in the 40s. The days keep getting shorter as we go from 10 hours and 30 minutes of daylight down to just 9 hours and 45 minutes. This is also a month when we typically get some of our first flakes to fly in Kansas. Average November snowfall in our state is roughly 1-3 inches, depending on location of course.

Setup for next Monday. Jet stream diving south and bringing the coldest air of the season |
It may not be cold enough for snow this week, but next week is a different story. There is a HUGE surge of cold air that is coming in November 11. Are you ready? Next week (Monday) could start off with highs 75-80 degrees, but it will come crashing down Monday night. Forecast models have been showing for at least two days now that temperatures will drop significantly by Tuesday (Nov. 11) Highs will struggle to get out of the low 40s. And while it may be cold enough for snow, there doesn't appear to be any snow events in the near future. So spend some time digging for the winter clothes, but leave the snow shovel behind for now. It's
unlikely that we will be shoveling next week.
Make sure to vote! Have a good day.
