59°F in the 20261022T18:00Z run, 70°F in the 20261024T12:00Z — 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 7°F.
Successive cycles do not merely refresh a forecast; they leave a trail. For Friday, October 30 at 03Z in Kansas City, that trail runs from 59.5°F in the 20261022T18:00Z cycle to 69.7°F in the 20261024T12:00Z — a move of +10.3°F across 8 runs.
The change is larger than the run's own 10th-to-90th percentile spread — the guidance did not merely narrow, it moved off its previous position.
