Rapid decline in temperature expected with upcoming weather pattern shift

A severe cold front is expected to bring a significant change in weather across the United States. Temperatures will decline by up to 35 degrees, providing relief from the sweltering heat experienced in many states. The transition will begin in the Plains and Midwest, where record-breaking October heat has been observed. While the Northeast will experience a surge of summerlike heat initially, the coldest air of the season will arrive late in the week, with temperatures dropping by as much as 35 degrees in some areas.
