Boston's forecast for Wednesday has moved 11°F warmer

58°F in the 20261008T12:00Z run, 69°F in the 20261010T06:00Z — the 2nd-largest revision of the 7 cities on the roster that moved at all. The current run's 10th-to-90th percentile spread at that hour is 18°F.

Successive cycles do not merely refresh a forecast; they leave a trail. For Wednesday, October 14 at 18Z in Boston, that trail runs from 58.0°F in the 20261008T12:00Z cycle to 68.6°F in the 20261010T06:00Z — a move of +10.6°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.
