ShawniganLake Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Must be a localized thing, I can't even see cloudiness locking south over the Juan de Fuca.

VancouverIslandSouth Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Victoria YYJ has had 4 "T's" but I guess their streak is technically still alive. Dry since June 19th. It's amazing the airport somehow avoided anything measurable over the 2 "rainy" days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front Ranger Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 The 'T' definitely taints it. Water did fall from the sky. Same with other dry streaks, though. One of the longer ones had like 6 "T" days. Quote A forum for the end of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wx_statman Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Don't really buy the whole we need scorching heat throughout the summer to avoid a hot early fall schtick. Mainly a myth perpetuated by Dewey, Hillary Clinton and the liberal media. It worked in 2004. #NeverForget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 It worked in 2004. #NeverForgetThere are just too many exceptions to take it too seriously, even recently. Our coolest Septembers in the last 20 years (2000, 2005, 2007) all followed coolish or not especially hot summers. Then our warmest September in the last several years (2014) followed a very warm/hot summer. The only year I can think of recently that followed the much touted cool early-mid summer/hot September progression was 2011. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like they could use some warm ridging. There is a fire that has been smoldering in the Columbia Gorge just east of here for the last 3-4 weeks. Something tells me that might blow up if it gets hot and windy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayla Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Looking more a more likely that the 1st will be a record breaking day for the Portland area. Low hanging fruit those first few days of the month. Great ensemble agreement for 100+ on the 1st now. EPS is up to 101. ECMWF operational shows 103. There are many members at or above 30c @850mb.

Best lake on the island in my biased opinion, it's in a valley down the center of the island so it gets a lot of heat, the water is crystal clear, and there are tons of quiet sheltered bays to park in and swim off the boat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
