New York's forecast for Monday has moved 6°F warmer

59°F in the 20260917T18:00Z run, 65°F in the 20260919T12:00Z — the 3rd-largest revision of the 3 cities on the roster that moved at all. The current run's 10th-to-90th percentile spread at that hour is 9°F.

Successive cycles do not merely refresh a forecast; they leave a trail. For Monday, September 28 at 12Z in New York, that trail runs from 59.0°F in the 20260917T18:00Z cycle to 65.2°F in the 20260919T12:00Z — a move of +6.1°F across 8 runs.

The change is about half the run's 10th-to-90th percentile spread, so the earlier forecast is still inside the current range of outcomes.

Model NBM-QMD, via api.weather.city /v1/history. Percentiles are the same run's own.
