Denver's forecast for Thursday has moved 10°F colder

65°F in the 20261010T06:00Z run, 54°F in the 20261012T00:00Z — the 2nd-largest revision of the 11 cities on the roster that moved at all. The current run's 10th-to-90th percentile spread at that hour is 13°F.

Successive cycles do not merely refresh a forecast; they leave a trail. For Thursday, October 15 at 21Z in Denver, that trail runs from 64.8°F in the 20261010T06:00Z cycle to 54.3°F in the 20261012T00:00Z — a move of -10.5°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.
