Nashville's forecast for Wednesday has moved 8°F colder

45°F in the 20261031T00:00Z run, 37°F in the 20261031T06:00Z — the 2nd-largest revision of the 4 cities on the roster that moved at all. The current run's 10th-to-90th percentile spread at that hour is 19°F.

Successive cycles do not merely refresh a forecast; they leave a trail. For Wednesday, November 11 at 12Z in Nashville, that trail runs from 45.1°F in the 20261031T00:00Z cycle to 37.5°F in the 20261031T06:00Z — a move of -7.6°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.
