TT-SEA Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 Our tomatoes have just exploded... they have tripled in size in the last 10 days and are cascading over the garden beds now and are out of control. Obviously the weather has been pretty nice when the tomatoes are this happy. 3 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GHweatherChris Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 57 minutes ago, TT-SEA said: Sometimes I am awe of the weather models. There is a small patch of high clouds drifting by Portland and SW WA right now and I distinctly remember seeing that patch race by this evening on the ECMWF runs from like 3 or 4 days ago. It stood out on the loop because there were no other clouds today. The fact that we have weather models that can pinpoint the location of a little wisp of high clouds that far out is pretty amazing when you think about it. How is that impressive, the models would be impressive if they could lock into and be right about a snowy pattern that far out let alone a day out sometimes. Hard to find it impressive that they kinda showed some wispy clouds that may or may not roll through, seems like luck of the draw really that it happened. Just me 2 cants. 1 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy Supercell Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 I think the 10-day cooled a bit. Only one day on there hits 90 for me.

Doinko Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 I was thinking about how the NWS issues blizzard warnings, and I know they've issued some for the Columbia River Gorge (Feb 2021 recently), but I was wondering whether conditions on the west slopes of the West Hills (Bethany, Cedar Mill, Sylvan) and east Portland could merit a blizzard warning being issued in those areas. A NOAA COOP station in Bethany during the December 1968 storm recorded sustained east winds of 30 mph for 3 hours, which means that frequent gusts 35mph+ (and stronger) probably happened, with snow falling and blowing the whole time, so visibility was probably low. That sounds like it could warrant a blizzard warning if something similar happened today, though I'm not sure. I think @Timmy Supercellalso said that there were blizzard conditions in the Bethany area during the January 2004 storm as well. East Portland/Troutdale was probably even windier. If something like that happened again, would it make sense for the NWS to issue a blizzard warning? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think the drive up to Port Hardy is worth it? It would be cool to see the north end of the island, but it’s a long way from Campbell River and there doesn’t seem to be much up there. There are a few cool things once you get there. Telegraph cove and some nice little seaside towns but the drive from Campbell river north isn’t all that spectacular much of the way. It takes the inland route so basically trees and mountains which you can see anywhere on the island. You could just as easily do a short little day trip over to Gold River if you’re staying in Campbell river. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWbyNW Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 No sunset shots tonight. It wasn't that interesting as the skies were totally clear. Color was okay. It was a hot day here. It hit 80F degrees! That was hotter than the forecasted 77F. It cooled off fast though and is now 64F. Quite breezy coming off Possession Sound. Forecast is pretty much Pacific Northwest summer perfection. Low 70s, a high 60s. Some clouds and some sun. Very nice. God bless America!
