As we get deeper into October, it is unsurprising things are going to cool off but as El Nino continues to develop in the Pacific, it may not cool as quickly as normal.

John Bumgardner at the National Weather Service in Lincoln tells Regional Radio, the next few weeks are trending pretty normal for temperatures with some precipitation in the forecast at times.

According to Bumgardner, you'll see the transition to the traditional cooler temperatures later in October when things become more windy.

A record El Nino could be developing. Bumgardner says it is almost certain El Nino will have an impact on the winter in Illinois and the Midwest.

We'll hear more from Bumgardner on how El Nino could impact the winter later this week on Regional Radio.
