Seems like whenever I drive to Silver Falls from the north there is always slash burning.

Oh yes it is very common in these parts.

66/57 spread here. Mostly cloudy day with about .10” rainfall so far. Everything looks about as lush and green as it has all spring at the moment.

Just realized it is down to 55 here, so that’s the new low for the day so far.

I think we stick a fork in this summer.  We were due for a bad one, but this is pretty ridiculous.

It already appears we could challenge June 1856 for awfulness.

Hey I might hit 75 once next week, that's pretty summery! Year without a summer status canceled :)

Might be lucky to hit 70 again for awhile if the 00z GFS verifies.

I just wish we could do this with slightly more enjoyable weather as in chilly NW flow.

I'm just saying what people have come to expect in summer here probably ain't going to happen this year.  I sure hope winter makes up for it.

0.48” today so far and 0.51” this month. Showers were pretty heavy this evening. 

We had one that was insane here.  Apparently my gutters are clogged as they turned into a waterfall in less than a minute.

Not only is it not even summer yet, summer isn’t even in range for the Euro or GFS. Forget June 21st, it’s called Junuary for a reason.  I never expect much decent weather until July 5th. If we’re still in this same pattern the second week of August, that will be a reasonable time to have this discussion.

This year just has a different vibe to it.  No way to say what is modeled is anything close to normal for June around here.  Obviously there is a lot of time to go, but the pattern is extremely persistent.  As anyone who has been around here long knows...I could care less about it being cool (in fact I prefer it) as long as it dries out for a while.  I would love to see the streak of ridiculous warm Augusts broken this year, but not if it means miserable weather.

1984, 1991(not a la niña), 1996, 2008, 2011, and 2012 all worked out in July and August. There is still hope.

1984 is something to hang some hope on.  That year was pretty ugly in May and June.

True. In times like this, I like to to imagine that these FEMA incident response courses I'm taking in my downtime at work were designed by someone that makes 6 figures and stopped caring 15 years ago. 

By the end of my conquest of the FEMA system I'll have something like 70 certifications with them. Why? Not sure. Doesn't do anything for me at my position. Just makes a sick public safety resume I guess? HMU if there's a mudslide I'm your guy haha.

1984 was a mess. It's the 3rd coldest May in Spokane. 1996 is the 2nd coldest. 1991 was the coldest June on record. 

How many top warm months or warmest months on record have they seen in the spring and summer in recent years?

Early June is definitely a favored time for cool, wet weather.    Way too early to say the entire summer will be like this.

In terms of SSTA... the latest map on top and the same day in 1999 and 2011 below.   Not sure it means anything but just showing for comparison.   ENSO regions are definitely warmer now than it was in early June 1999 and a little cooler than early June 2011.

But you have to account for warmer global SSTAs as well. Because *differential heating* is how ENSO influences global circulation.

So the 2022 ENSO is in all likelihood stronger than 1999 was at this point in time.

The effects might be stronger... but the ENSO SSTAs were colder in 1999.
