Jesse Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Looking forward to seeing if the EPS agrees with the operational. I’m hoping it pours down rain over all of Memorial Day weeeknd. Every day.Looks like it does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Switchbacks are a pain, especially if there's nothing interesting to look at.So, was the reward at the end of Constance worth it?Yeah it’s pretty amazing. The sheer walls of Mount Constance rising out of the lake are gorgeous even in heavy drizzle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Meant to follow up on this last night. This view seems fairly east coast centric. We aren’t talking about big elms and chestnuts that line old neighborhood streets dying. We are talking about millions of acres of pine forest killed by native pine beetles, due in part to changes in year to year climate. I realize a lot of deciduous trees back there have fallen victim to non-native pathogens, but I would guess the numbers of actual trees killed lags the big pine beetle outbreaks. I think it is hard for east coasters to imagine the vast tracts of land we have out here sometimes. You guys are almost more like Europe back there, at least in the way that population is distributed.Chestnuts never lined streets here. All of these great native trees (Elm, Chestnut, and now Ash) that dominated the forests were/are being killed off by invasive, human-introduced insects and/or fungal pathogens from overseas. And we’re talking billions of trees killed, and that number is only going up. You will never find a case where one degree of middle latitude climate warming (or cooling) wipes out entire tree species that have been native to a region across multiple 15,000yr episodes of interglacial warmth. Perhaps you’re seeing an accelerated recovery from LIA-induced vegetation changes (it was the coldest period in 10,000yrs out there), but your climate is not unusually warm today by Holocene standards. It’s actually right smack dab in the middle of the median.

I hope nature makes you pay dearly for a wet Memorial Day weekend!

So might as well return the favor. A washout Memorial Day weekend does sound nice, though. No skin off my nose since I will find a way to enjoy it outside regardless.

Probably going with persistence....or not, and it stays warm overall despite a couple ULLs. If that is the case we better hope we can make the most out of this Memorial Day rain event.

Phil Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Few people realize that the eastern third of the county has more than double the forest acreage of the entire western half of the country. There are 250% more trees across the eastern 40% of the country than there are across the western 60% of the country. Before settlers arrived, the entire eastern third of the country was blanketed by forests. It’s what this area would revert back to if humans left. There are fewer old-growth forests here vs the west, but that will change in just 75-150yrs, if current trends continue. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 GOOD NEWS!Yeah, if you want higher chances for western troughing and retrograding NPAC anticyclones, it’s good news. Still doesn’t get going for at least 10 days, but guidance is finally consistent in building anticyclones poleward enough to induce the necessary wavebreaking for a negative NAM.

jcmcgaffey Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Move to Seattle. As is often the case, they've seen way more sun over the past few days. Today looks pretty decent there as well.. Eh it’s been pretty cloudy today and the last few days still waiting for the clouds to clear up here. Looking at the needle cam pretty clear north and south of seattle though. Almost a small convergence that has been sitting over the city today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
