Meatyorologist Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 On an additional note, I have to say I'm very happy with how this forum has been all week. Seven days. One whole week. No drama! Even with a large heatwave coming into view! And not being weird about it either!! I appreciate you all listening, the quality of this place has improved tremendously. There are a few members that have really stepped it up and they know who they are. Can't thank y'all enough. 6 1 Quote Weather stats for MBY Snowfall: -Total snowfall since joining: 50.25" -2018-19: 21" -2019-20: 2.5" -2020-21: 13" -2021-22: 8.75" -2022-23: 5.75" -2023-24*: 0.25" -Most recent snowfall: 0.25”; January 17th, 2024 -Largest snowfall (single storm): 8.5"; February 12-13, 2021 -Largest snow depth: 14"; 1:30am February 12th, 2019 Temperatures: -Warmest: 109F; June 28th, 2021 -Coldest: 13F; December 27th, 2021 -Phreeze Count 2023-24: 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure if its 100 degrees in Seattle then it will be at least 90 degrees in your area based on past history. 1 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...

If it contributed to the unusual cold in April and May… Are there any aggregate temp measures for the NH or midlatitudes yet? For recent months? Obviously its not causing the extreme heat events on its own but it would show up on an aggregation measure i'd think. that much water vapor into the air immediately should have some impact fairly quickly. I just havent seen anything posted about it anywhere. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it contributed to the unusual cold in April and May… Phil says no way. My personal feeling is that it shifted the pattern and caused a resurgence of the Nina which had an immediate impact in the PNW with cold and wet weather. But overall its going to lead to warming and it might last a few years based on what I have read. Pretty much uncharted territory right now in terms of stratospheric water vapor. And this is a 3rd year Nina summer? I can't imagine what the next Nino summer will be like. 1 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...
RentonHill Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 I thought this would be a resolution issue but the maps literally do not show a major heat wave. But the 500mb pattern is pretty darn near identical? How can the GEM be so bad at surface temps? Is it always this bad and i just never notice in the winter?

NWbyNW Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 I've got bad news... after all the progress shown in earlier runs, GFS decided to make a new PEAK hot day. Now it's Friday.... and Tacoma is showing a high of 101F as is Portland. So the original peak days of Tuesday and Wednesday are no more... now it's Thursday Friday. Let's hope this changes. Horrible heat for the Columbia Basin with Twi-Cities at 114, Omak around 104, Spokane 102, Clarkston 104, The Dalles 111, Medford in a week long trend of 100 + degrees. Gosh darn, what is happening? Please just end all this. Still though, as I said before, cool spots are the coast. Oregon coast is 70s to as low as 60s. Washington's coast is cooler in the mid 70s and north of Seattle between Everett and Bellingham is cooler, low 80s to 70s. Port Townsend is supposed to be in the 60s.

We all know it has a terrible warm bias for surface temps anyway. A good marine cloud day is pretty likely somewhere in the next Saturday through Monday time frame. The 500mb pattern and surface gradients just don't scream abnormal warmth after next Friday or Saturday. 1 Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!
