59°F in the 20260928T12:00Z run, 52°F in the 20260930T06:00Z — the 3rd-largest revision of the 5 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 Saturday, October 3 at 09Z in Kansas City, that trail runs from 58.9°F in the 20260928T12:00Z cycle to 51.7°F in the 20260930T06:00Z — a move of -7.2°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.
