Successive cycles do not merely refresh a forecast; they leave a trail. For Wednesday, November 18 at 18Z in Boston, that trail runs from 51.5°F in the 20261110T12:00Z cycle to 58.4°F in the 20261112T06:00Z — a move of +6.8°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.
