They offer a ton of climate weather data. In this blog, I like to highlight several key images for the month of October.<\/p>\n<p>The first image shows what happen globally with regard to weather hazards.\u00a0 If you click on the image below, you will able to see it much larger.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncdc.noaa.gov\/sotc\/service\/global\/extremes\/201110.gif\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncdc.noaa.gov\/sotc\/service\/global\/extremes\/201110.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Next, let&#8217;s take a look at the Significant Events for the month of October.\u00a0 If you click on the image below, you will able to view the full report for this month.\u00a0 Again, there is a lot of data they review for this month.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncdc.noaa.gov\/sotc\/national\/2011\/10\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www1.ncdc.noaa.gov\/pub\/data\/cmb\/images\/us\/2011\/oct\/monthlysigeventmap-102011-sm.gif\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>One of the more interesting images I always like to take a look at is the 500mb Height and Anomaly map.\u00a0 When you look at the 500mb map, you can get a sense where ridges and trough setup.\u00a0 The shades of red indicate ridging, while the shades of blue indicate trough.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s compare October of this year to last year.

Notice how impressive the ridging was setting up over Alaska and over Eastern Canada and Greenland. Notice how much blocking was setting up over these locations.  This would eventually lead to some significant cold over the Central and Eastern US as we went into December. Plus, a more favorable pattern for snow for the same locations.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncdc.noaa.gov\/sotc\/service\/national\/hgtanomaly-usa\/201011.gif\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncdc.noaa.gov\/sotc\/service\/national\/hgtanomaly-usa\/201010.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"534\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, there is so much data you can analyze..\u00a0 To access this data and more, head over to <a title=\"October 2011 Climate Data Review\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncdc.noaa.gov\/temp-and-precip\/maps.php?submitted=true&amp;year=2010&amp;month=10&amp;imgs[]=Nationaltrank&amp;imgs[]=Nationalprank&amp;imgs[]=Regionaltrank&amp;imgs[]=Regionalprank&amp;imgs[]=Statewidetrank&amp;imgs[]=Statewideprank&amp;imgs[]=Divisionaltrank&amp;imgs[]=Divisionalprank&amp;ts=1#maps\" target=\"_blank\">National Climate Data Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good Evening Everyone, Tonight, I like to share with you a quick view of past weather events in October.
