Find him and throw him off a cliff, or make him have to reforest all areas he caused burn, or.... Something like that.

Getting close here today as well after virtually no smoke the last 3 days.

We’re in about the perfect drainage spot for the Nakia fire. After a nice inversiony night, it’s settled into the valley like concrete.

September 2020 was still the worst smoke I have ever been in, you could not be outside for more than a few minutes during the height of it. 31916A59-9B72-44B8-883C-191A8F14383F.jpeg

It's so weird because I'm pretty sure this is the same 961mb low that the GFS was showing at one point yesterday then completely backed off away from it. Now the Euro is showing it.

Amazing... live view from Friday Harbor on top and Bellingham on the bottom.       Unbelievable difference across a short distance.

Nasty.  I love that view from the top of the hill in Friday Harbor.  Great place to sip a drink and have some grub while watching the marina.

Just have that bad boy make landfall a little south of Cape Blanco with an ENE track. Massive and expansive deformation shield to the north.

Ah, the price of having an ocean nearby.

And large mountain ranges to our east, blocking the Arctic airmasses from penetrating into the region.

What would our climate be like if the Rockies and associated ranges did not exist, but the Cascades/Coast Mtns did?

2022-23 Winter:

11/29: .25" + 1" = 1.25" | 11/30: .25"

12/2: .2" + .5" = .7" | 12/3: .2" | 12/4: trace

12/18: .4" | 12/19: .2" + .8" = 1.0" | 12/20: .2 + 1.5" = 1.7

1/31: trace | 2/14: trace | 2/22: .2 | 2/26: 1.0"

Total: 6.7"

Backdoor airmasses would be Cross-Cascade gradients often.

Kind of crazy how much the switch flipped this year from the spring to the summer. The last 120 days (6/20-10/18) at SEA have been the driest on record for that period with only 0.54" of precipitation. The previous 120 days (2/21-6/20) were the second wettest on record for that period with 17.11".

It's now been 122 days since SEA recorded more than 0.15" of rain in a day which is by far the longest streak on record. In the previous 120 days before that, SEA tied a record with 36 days with more than 0.15" of rain in a day.

No one, because it's obviously gonna trend north.

RIGHT Tim? 

Maybe. I dunno what Tim has to do with it? 🤥

I will say that I've noticed over the past many years of tracking wind storms that there are usually three distinct model trends within 96 hours. South, north, and then locked in to the south, or north, south, north.

      Polite Politics

      Very true. The crazy thing is that as an American, I have seen my vacation time actually DECREASE since being bought out by a French Company. The site I worked at got closed and folks got absorbed into another division, and in the process my almost 6 weeks of PTO (I worked there 18 years) with a 6.5 week cap, got cut down to 4.5 weeks. The biggest thing I would love to see (not necessarily a French thing) would be a 4 day work week. My previous tenure at the company, I was salary and working with a Japanese customer. Since our Friday was their Saturday, we usually cut out about 1-2pm on Fridays. I worked briefly for a refinery services company and they did the same thing, working 9-ish hour days Monday through Thursday, then on Friday we would check in for a few hours in the morning then the rest of the day was ours. My current role, everything happens at 5pm on Friday.

      April 2024 Observations and Discussion

      Today will make it 8 of the last 10 days featuring below normal temperatures. That ends tomorrow as temps soar into the high 70's and then 80's on both Monday and Tuesday! A slight shot at some showers today but a better chance on Tuesday. Temps should remain above normal in the mid 70's for much of the upcoming week. Chester County Records for today: High 95 degrees at Sadsburyville (1915) / Low 26 degrees at Coatesville (1926) / Rain 2.45" at East Nantmeal (2007)
