Jesse Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 I mistook you for another poster. You were right Wednesday and I was wrong. Today it seems like we will both be right because PDX hit 85 and you called for 80-85 and I called for 85-90. Tomorrow you will be wrong however because you called for 70s and I called for 80s if it reaches 80+, which you said wouldn't happen. So in the end it all evens out. http://w1.weather.gov/obhistory/KPDX.htmlExcept tomorrow hasn't happened yet. Back to back 80+ is a pretty tough feat for this early. Especially considering we lose the offshore flow component tomorrow. Good point that I was also right, predicting 80-85. There goes Matt's argument.

James Jones Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Earliest 85 in PDX history by 19 days today (old record was 86 on 4/26/04). Earliest in Portland history too, downtown's earliest was 87 on 4/12/1904. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it stands, PDX was mitigated a bit by a little stronger than anticipated offshore flow. Models a couple days ago were more in line with a perfect storm of gradients dying in the afternoon. The stronger gradients help Kelso in particular, characterized by the light southerlies they occasionally pick up on days like this. Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad.

TT-SEA Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Lets go with a favorable blend of 1878, 1889, 1906, 1926, 1931, 1936, 1942, 1958, 1995, 1998. All of these years were coming off a strong Nino and transitioning to cold neutral or Nina. That is the majority of such years. And all of them had spectacular summers here. 1889, 1926, 1931, and 1958 were off-the-charts warm and sunny.

Timmy Supercell Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 81 / 35 in Klamath Falls today. It actually was quite breezy the whole afternoon.

bainbridgekid Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Easily the earliest ever +20c 850mb sounding for SLE this morning. Unless I'm reading it wrong, looks like the previous earliest +20c was early May. Also pretty interesting that the average 850mb temp is no higher in early April than in January.

snow_wizard Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 "Nice" and warmer than average don't always go hand in hand. You and I both seem to agree September 1983 was pretty nice. That month was 2-3 degrees below average down here. Sept 1983 had the coldest low temps I've ever witnessed in that month.
