Aside from the damp, cool weather we had on Saturday, this October has been above average temperature wise here in the Quad Cities. Normally, the average temperature between the first 8 days of October should be 68.8625°. This year we have averaged 75.875° between those days, a little over 7° above average! Keep in mind, these are just high temperatures. Our lows have not been far from where they are supposed to be for this time of year.
The next few days will continue to be above average in the mid and upper 70s as high pressure is in control. However, our next front is set to roll through this weekend, and that will cool temperatures down to near seasonal. Here is the Climate Prediction Center's 8-14 day outlook for temperatures.

While this is just one take on the forecast, there are signs of temperatures falling a bit below average the beginning of next week after another cold front swings through later Monday and Tuesday. Of course, this is still a week away, so there is plenty of fine tuning to do.
Meanwhile, hopefully you can get out and enjoy the warm weather while you can! A fantastic time to mow the lawn and get other yard work done.
