As they say, warmest October among the past years, coldest October among the ones coming...

What does this even mean?

That this is the warmest October so far. But that statement will be true for subsequent Octobers as well (i.e. it will just keep getting warmer).

I re-read it and got it, my brain didn't parse that properly. Thanks :)

Would it be fair to say that the first time you read it, you were... bamboozled?

That wasn’t obvious enough for you ?

It's "May the best of your past be the worst of your future" except the other way around.
