Excuse me for being a little giddy today, lol. One thing I will say though, is that we better sell out this game for real, even if it's a little cold or a little rainy or whatever.
Weather for OSU @ RU: Lock It Up for Seasonable Temps and Dry Conditions (Who Cares? We're Going Bowling!!)
- Thread starter RU848789
- Start date
Just a heads up....after a blustery Sunday with highs only in the mid 50s and a frosty start for some on Monday morning, the upcoming week will be glorious with a quick warm up. Hitting 70 by Wednesday and could nudge into the mid 70s in some locales by the end of the week
All kidding aside, I'd take seasonal (and dry), as the avg hi/low is 60/38F on 11/4. CPC has us as cooler than normal and normal precip for their 8-14 day outlook for our area.
Looks spectacular next week and we even have a decent chance of an ok weekend, although it's still too far out to be anywhere near sure of that (but it looks great through at least Friday). It's pretty windy out there now and will be through tomorrow - should make for a fun disc golf tournament tomorrow, lol.
You thread title gets a few
. Absolutely true. THE #1 objective for this season. We have house money now! Go get 1 more win. 2 is less possible but if Iowa has a bad day who knows!
Still 8+ days out, but I have to say I'm very encouraged by the pattern unfolding, with high pressure looking to take control over the eastern 1/3 of the country by mid-next week through Saturday with cool temps (and possibly some precip on Weds, but very little after that) and likely dry conditions. No models show any precip for Fri/Sat with some precip showing up by Sunday. Still very far out and this could change, but it's at least encouraging.
And the next 2 days look to be gorgeous, just like the last two days, with possible record high temps, while it's possible areas well N/W of 95 could see their first snowfall of the season (maybe an inch or two) on Wednesday...

My softball playoffs aren’t gonna end until December at this rate. I’ve been seeing rain in this area for Monday and Wednesday several days now. Of course if my team plays and wins Monday, we’re supposed to play on Wednesday. Unreal.
That being said, it’s looking great for next Saturday as of now!
I hate getting too optimistic 8 days out, but every single indication is that high pressure will take control in our region (and most of the eastern US) from Thursday through Sunday with the entire period looking to be dry, including on every global model. And temps would be slowly warming up from well below normal on Weds/Thurs to near normal (60/38 is the normal high/low on 11/4) by Saturday. Patterns like this are usually pretty straightforward to predict even this far out, but can't say lock it up quite yet - hopefully by Sunday.
Its looking good...and possible low 60s. After todays warmth we go slowly downhill before crashing on Wednesday with remps not getting out of 40s but a quick rebound in temps by Saturday
It's just about a lock for seasonable temps and, most importantly, dry conditions for tailgates and the game (and really Weds night through Sat night, at least), with morning lows around 40F and gametime highs around 60F, which is right around average (60/38F are avg highs/lows on 11/4) and plenty of sunshine looking likely. The only thing that keeps me from saying it's a lock is it's still a week out and I don't think I've ever called a lock that far out (maybe 6 days once or twice), but this is a really high confidence forecast, as per the NWS-Philly discussion below. Updated the thread title.

LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
The ensemble and deterministic guidance remains in good agreement on
the upper level pattern expected during the long term. Overall,
forecaster confidence in the pattern remains high. A longwave and
upper level trough will be over the eastern CONUS Tuesday night,
looking to weaken while moving eastward with time. With the trough
lifting out Wednesday night, a zonal upper level pattern will then
look to take hold for the rest of the long term.
At the surface level, the upper level pattern described will
correspond with surface low pressure and perhaps some lingering
shortwave energy impacting the region Tuesday night through
Wednesday. Thereafter, strong high pressure from the west will build
in and hold a dominate grasp over the region for the rest of the
long term.
Mainly chance PoPs remain in the forecast for much of the
region Tuesday night and Wednesday. Thereafter, with surface high
pressure building in, no precipitation is expected Wednesday night
through the end of the term (i.e., thru Saturday). Temperature wise, the overall pattern
supports temperatures running well below average for the term. Highs
only reaching the upper 40s across the urban corridor are possible
Wednesday. A widespread region wide freeze is possible Wednesday
night into Thursday.
"low 60's" ....better get your scarf and parka ready buddy!
Low 60s in November vs low 60s in September is not the same. Going to be beautiful"low 60's" ....better get your scarf and parka ready buddy!
Let's make an early call - lock it up for seasonable and dry for Saturday with morning lows around 40F, gametime highs around 60F (maybe low 60s) and dry conditions with some sunshine (and likely light winds), as a strong high pressure system will take control from Thursday into Sunday. Every model shows this and shows no rain from late Weds until at least midday unday. Will be a beautiful fall day for tailgating and football. Really, really, really want to have the team play well and keep this competitive and maybe even throw a scare into OSU.
Looks like light winds (5-10 mph) at this point, but winds are very difficult to forecast, so stay tuned - that's not to say that 20-30 mph winds are a threat, but 10-15 mph breezy conditions can't be ruled out and <5 mph very light winds also can't be ruled out. It's truly shaping up to be a spectacular fall day.
