I guess that makes sense, but I like the extra daylight on summer nights, rather than sun very early in the morning in the summer. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gradient Keeper Posted November 14, 2022 Report Share Posted November 14, 2022 Pressure Gradients - UPDATE As expected easterly gradients are steadily increasing. I see over the past 20 minutes an east wind has now developed in Troutdale. This will increase and soon spread further west for locations east of I-205 and then tomorrow throughout most of the metro area. It will be much windier Monday evening into Tuesday morning with very gusty conditions east of I-205 and in/near the Western Gorge. 7 PM [Gorge/Gap Gradients] PDX-DLS: -3.4mb TTD-DLS: -3.4mb [Cross Cascade Gradients] PDX-YKM: -4.2mb PDX-MWH: -5.1mb PDX-GEG: -3.2mb OTH-GEG: -5.5mb *Legend: PDX = Portland, DLS = The Dalles, TTD = Troutdale, YKM = Yakima, MWH = Moses Lake, GEG = Spokane, OTH = North Bend A -Negative value denotes easterly/northerly flow A +Positive value denotes westerly/onshore flow What's a Pressure Gradient? A pressure gradient measures the difference in Barometric Pressure between two locations. For example, PDX pressure is currently 30.35 in and The Dalles is 30.43 in. Higher pressure at The Dalles and lower pressure at Portland induces an east wind through the Gorge. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Meatyorologist Posted November 14, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 14, 2022 I forgot to tell this story earlier, but just the other night, right about this time in the evening, I noticed ice forming in real time on the surface of my bird bath. It was forming a triangular lattice structure, with crystalline fractal-like formations on the corners. So incredibly beautiful to watch it happen before my eyes, without needing the aid of time lapse photography. 14 1 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...
