Front Ranger Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 I’m pretty sure that place is “dry”. I know people that have been there and they shipped some booze in to drink at their hotel. Kind of a tourism killer. No kidding. Vortex watching isn't nearly as fun if you're not smashed. 1 Quote A forum for the end of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 When is the last time that thing was persistent for this long?On a full-year basis, this is unprecedented. It used to happen a lot more in J/A/S, and less-so at other times of the year, but so far this year it’s been almost a semipermanent feature. Will have to see how it evolves over the next 2 months. Solar minimum/BDC state does favor a flip into -NAO this winter. As recently as 2016 that entire region was torching into oblivion. Now it’s the most prolific icebox on the planet, relative to average. At least for now.

Front Ranger Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 The cool weather and rain appear to be entirely focused on Saturday now. Friday is still warm and sunny (particularly up here) and Sunday is pretty warm (but not hot) and sunny again. Friday looks like your typical marine push to end a heatwave day, which means it should be much cooler (relative to normal) the further south you go. Quote A forum for the end of the world.

Good news is Sunday looks a bit cooler! Models have gone back and forth with the timing of the ULL moving in. A difference of 4 hours could mean the difference between an 88 degree high at PDX or a 78 degree high.

Front Ranger Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 12Z ECMWF map shows 98 and 100 at PDX on Monday and Tuesday. It will be close. Seems odd with that pattern. How many instances are there of PDX hitting 100 with heights below 585? It doesn't even really look like a pattern that would produce strong offshore flow. Yesterday, heights were around 589 and PDX hit 95. Granted, there was some smoke, but that seems more typical. Of course, I know heights are just one factor in how hot it gets.

Pretty incredible after this week.Phil effect lag. Same thing happened last year. Pattern flipped warm during my visit and stayed that way for the subsequent month following my departure. And it flipped troughy/wet here while I was gone both times. Now that I’m back on the east coast, I suspect Mother Nature will figure that out and begin reshuffling the deck towards ridgier times here, and more troughing out west. Might take a few weeks but it’s probably a safe bet. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 BTW, in the three weeks that I was gone, my station only recorded one day above 90*F. It was historically cool by our standards. Since I’ve returned, all 3 days have been above 90*F with heat indices above 100*F. I’m telling you, the Phil effect is real. I literally attract heat ridges wherever I go. And apparently I also leave them behind, spinning in my wake. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm still skeptical with this pattern, especially how it's been trending since yesterday. If it were one week later in August, I'd say there's no way that produces triple digits at PDX, but we're still in the dog days until about the 20th or so. Quote A forum for the end of the world.
