Yes Chris... we can make good use of our 3 or 4 days above 90 degrees each summer and enjoy them on the water AND still prefer sunshine and 70s on the rest of the days.     

This weekend was fun and exhausting.   We can't keep up that pace for more than a couple days.   And we sure as hell don't want 95-degree weather to just continue every day.    That would be pure hell.

Pretty simple to understand.

One more note... we absolutely love going to Palm Springs.   Truly love it there.    And every time we go my wife says that she could never live there.   She loves visiting and its a perfect escape to get sun and warmth... but to live there would not be fun.   

Have you ever had fun traveling some place but don't want to move there?   

You people seem to struggle with this concept.  😀

Everywhere we have ever vacationed to we have always left with the opinion of, I can see us living here at some point.

The highest it got here was 90.  The other two warm days were upper 80s.

That sounds nice. Ended up warmer at my place. Was the humidity out there bad like the NAM so very badly wanted it to be?

Today's my bday and it was nice to have temps in the 70's instead of driving to Lewiston and praying my ice cream cake didn't melt on the 40 min drive home in official 115 record heat last year. Cake survived again :p. Not sharing though.

Interesting to note the Nino SST anoms have been peaking in the summer in recent years and we are still negative in Nino 3.4.  Nino 1+2 is running sustained around -2.  Nearly zero chance of warm ENSO for the coming winter.

Not really.  We had an east wind early in the event which really dried the air out.  If the east wind had been a day later it would have gotten much hotter here.

There is only one person preferencing though lol.

The rest of us are just pointing out the chinks in the armor.

There are no chinks... you  don't seem to understand enjoying something different but not wanting it permanently.   Such a simple concept.   😀

Averages are averages no matter how you get there, thats pretty simple as well.  Take the good with the bad or unsavory and move on.

The May PDO was -2.30.  Collectively the last 6+ months have had the lowest PDO since the 1950s.

An easier way to metaphor this is to reference winter. We all love and want lowlands snow here because it’s rather rare. If we were to have it like the mid-west. I’m sure we’re all be sick of it. Go up to the mountains instead 😂

Exactly the way I feel. We have fairly similar weather 9 months of the year. We don’t need more of the same in summer. That’s why I don’t mind heatwaves as long as they’re short lived.

Thanks! I’d also be challenging them a lot more of them which buries this place in (even more) pages of debate. Just not worth it.

And ENSO is solidly cooler than it was in 2011 was at this time.

The ongoing trade surge will trigger an upwelling oceanic kelvin wave in July, which will begin the descent back into a moderate (or perhaps strong) La Niña next winter.

Sucks for me, probably another crappy winter out here.

I’ve never seen this many lightning bugs in my life.

Something about the weather must have been favorable for an exceptional emergence. Thousands upon thousands of them lighting up in the trees every second.

Since 2016-17, I've had over a foot more snowfall than DCA.

Looks like my location might have warmed up faster, and the east wind kept things cooler for longer at PDX. It says 92 consecutive hours below freezing, until the 1st of Jan. I don't know when they start the day though, maybe 8 pm is when they took observations at the COOP site? Not sure if I should count it as 15/7 or 12/7.

It's really hard to get a big ice storm on the west side so it must have been one heck of a cold airmass for that to occur. I'm still amazed that winter was a moderate el nino but it did have one of the strongest SSW events in history.

It would appear we have a bit of a situation with a radio station for our maple syrup loving brothers to the north of the 49th parallel
