What People Think About November Weather and Earthquakes

People currently seem to think that November will not see a small rise in temperature, nor a moderate rise. The feeling is strongly against any increase that stays below the benchmark or falls between two benchmarks. In short, most expect the temperature to be higher than the low end.

When it comes to earthquakes, opinions are split. Some think there will be a few strong quakes worldwide, while others are convinced there will be none. The overall feeling leans toward expecting some activity, but many doubt it. The view is divided, with a clear leaning toward a higher number of events.

Regarding El Niño, people mostly think it will be the strongest on record. For New York City, the feeling is that November will bring more rain than the low threshold, and also more than the middle range. In both cases, the prevailing view is that precipitation will be abundant.

Looking at early winter, people expect snow in Boston and Buffalo, but not in Chicago. The feeling is clear: the northern cities will see their first snow, while the Midwest will wait. This mix of expectations shows how regional outlooks differ.
