October 2025
Someone had to start it lol. What shall it bring? Looking for that first true shot of crisp fall weather...
Anything is possible for October 2025.
To begin October, looks hot and dry.
Ugh.
Ugh.
The Euro looks wet begging in 10ish days. GFS, dry through the entire run.
The silver lining this time, from my standpoint, is that this pattern didn't coincide with peak summer heating. Hot is tough. Dry is depressing. Hot and Dry is hell.
I don't see any rain at all on the 18z models, except near the coast, until mid-October.
Welp…..GFS has 100’s in College Station (mid-90’s in Galveston County) in mid-October. If that, indeed, pans out….. Looks like Mother Nature wants to repay us for the milder high temps this Summer. I can’t stand this climate.
Bleak.
90°F+ until sometime in mid-October
Euro - no relief in sight
CMC - FROPA around the 10th or 11th
GFS -FROPA around the 16th + an ECAP storm spreading moisture.
For the next 10-14 days more Fall Big Suck like last year.

This is so depressing.

So pretty much the average texas weather in october, not surprised anymore
These 7-8 month summers are getting real damn old. We get maybe 3-4 months of fallnterspring around mid November before its hot and dry again starting in April.
Agreed. I’m moving once my daughter graduates high school. I need to be somewhere with seasons.
I was thinking about retiring in 10 years, but it may be closer to 5. I enjoy what we're doing, but the weather/climate change is breaking my will.
So...North Carolina or Colorado - whichever we can afford! I'm thinking about near Elon - halfway between the mountains and coast.
I remember way back in 1987, just before I met my wife, I took a trip to San Antonio and the Hill Country about October 8th or 9th to visit my brother and family. An actual cold front passed through. After the rain there were brilliant blue skies with highs in the 60s and lows in the 40s. Just beautiful conditions. I actually thought at the time that this was a common occurrence in Texas during Fall. Dumb me, but it was before the internet.
Back in the 1990s in College Station we had a couple of frosts around Halloween. October and even September featured a lot of rain. The ground at A&M was usually muddy from late September through the end of May. No mas.
Now we have endless summer, but not the Beach Boys kind. 
We're a semi-arid desert with occasional floods.

There was a freeze in Halloween 1993. There have been cold blasts before December in the early 1990s. November 1991 comes to mind, along with October 1993.DoctorMu wrote: ↑Wed Oct 01, 2025 5:17 pm I was thinking about retiring in 10 years, but it may be closer to 5.

Mid to late October used to be the best time of the year. My birthday is the 23rd and i can remember quite a few beautiful cool birthdays growing up in the late 80s/90s but always watching the forecast because it always seemed to rain on or around my birthday. Same with the Wings over Houston Airshow. There were a few warm ones but nothing like it has been the past decade.
I remember the 1993 freeze well. Good times! That clean fresh Canadian air. Crystalline blue sky.Ptarmigan wrote: ↑Wed Oct 01, 2025 9:36 pmThere was a freeze in Halloween 1993.
