Kansas City's forecast for Thursday has moved 7°F warmer

59°F in the 20261006T06:00Z run, 66°F in the 20261008T00:00Z — the 3rd-largest revision of the 6 cities on the roster that moved at all. The current run's 10th-to-90th percentile spread at that hour is 22°F.

Successive cycles do not merely refresh a forecast; they leave a trail. For Thursday, October 15 at 06Z in Kansas City, that trail runs from 58.7°F in the 20261006T06:00Z cycle to 66.1°F in the 20261008T00:00Z — a move of +7.4°F across 8 runs.

The change sits well inside the run's own spread, which is the guidance converging rather than reversing.

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