On the 7th month of... July PNW 2022 (Preferance Wars)

[snow_wizard]

The ECMWF could be a lot worse.  OK for this week then it kicks that stupid cutoff low inland for a cool day 9 and 10.

Why not to AK?

They have had some really cool troughs up there this summer.

true - its not as bad as i thought at first glance. Still hot for PDX though. Medford 

 

[RentonHill]

Ashland would have beat their prior all time high by 2F if not for 2021

[KeyPeninsula_Wx]

Sunday and Monday looks pretty warm next week…but overall after today it’s much better. We will see what happens with the smoke.

Scappoose was also the hot spot during the August 2021 event, they hit 107 degrees with that.

Scappoose got to 103 yesterday, looks like they were the hottest airport location around the Metro area.

77 degrees and sunny here in Minnesota.  Perfection.   Everything is lush green although they say it's been a dry summer.   We left North Bend at 7:30 a.m. yesterday and arrived at 9 a.m. CDT here so 23.5 hour trip with two stops for sit down meals 

Damn that looks fine as hell.

Feels like 107 here in Sarasota.

One thing to note is the fact that AK and the WGOA continue to get pounded with a continuation of this pattern…

Even the heat dome of last June was at least partially the downwind result of a historically strong system in the GOA a few days prior.

That pattern would be a derecho orgy.

I’m sure back home will get hammered now that I’ve left.

[TigerWoodsLibido]

And that's another 90F burger!

[Phil]

Yeah looks like summer is over in Alaska.

Gonna be snowing hard up there if the EPS is right.

Nice stock of cold air for when the 4CH dissolves.

Temperatures in the Strait of Georgia are now approaching mid-70s, about as warm as you'd expect them to get in the year. Meanwhile YVR recorded a record high dewpoint at 73F - https://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/news/article/vancouver-sets-all-time-dew-point-record-as-tropical-air-bathes-british-columbia#:~:text=Steamy Vancouver sets all-time dew point record&text=The city recorded a dew,in this typically temperate city. I don't think the dewpoint has fallen below 63F there in over a week now.

[snow_wizard]

I wonder if the Atlantic is going to wake up in August.  This is such an atypical La Nina summer who knows.

Amazing how warm that gets compared to everything else.  Juan de Fuca is so bloody cold by comparison.

Hopefully it’ll be a quieter year. Been a brutal stretch since 2017.

Seems like it’s cooler overall compared to this time yesterday regionally here were -1 I think. 87 here.

87 here. I was in the 90s by this time yesterday. Definitely more comfortable out. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Several new fires in Eastern Douglas County. 

[KeyPeninsula_Wx]

Looks like SEA just hit 6 straight. 

[Omegaraptor]

97 at HIO, 91 at Aurora. So I guess 94 in Lake Oswego?

Lol, HIO is hotter than Medford as well as every Sacramento Valley station except RDD.

[The Swamp]

92 here in The Swamp.  What a glorious streak of beautiful summer weather.

Unbelievable!

Fantastic!

Wow!

Remarkably stable streak here.  6 consecutive all 91 to 94.  Really incredible to have a heat pattern be so consistent like this.

[LowerGarfield]

100F right now outside but still comfortable inside with A/C. I hope that A/C doesn't become politicized.

No doubt it will.  Where do you think all of the power will come from when we are all ordered to drive electric cars?

[snow_wizard]

The GFS is showing a really strong onshore flow setting up tomorrow.  Good chance Tuesday will be quite a bit cooler than shown.

[RentonHill]

Ohh????? A blessing from above, perhaps??

The trough hangs in better than previous runs.

[TT-SEA]

Record shattering all time heat last year... followed now by the longest heat wave in history.  In back to back Nina summers.    Pretty surreal even for someone who loves warm weather in the summer. 

[Eastwind]

SEA up to 92 and PDX up to 95 at 3pm.

Every time I see that snow person walking I want to eat it with sprinkles.

It's an incredible streak from the heavens.

Maybe we can get an equally cold, dry, sunny streak like this in the winter with some cold dry snow and windy outflow?

This stretch has been heaven sent.  I love the sun and the warmth and am in seventh heaven.

This is an incredible and unreal stretch.  Fantastic!
