Deweydog Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 18z ensembles hint that the heatwave may end at some point. Step in the right direction.Makes sense considering their are only a small handful of PNW heatwaves that never ended. 1 Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad.

Jesse Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 Makes sense considering their are only a small handful of PNW heatwaves that never ended. That was kinda the joke. Although the 7-10 day heatwaves that have become more common in recent years feel like they'll never end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, persistence hasn't been too ridiculous. We saw 12 consecutive 88+ just last July/August, which was a new benchmark. Late July/early August 2014 had nine consecutive 87+, which is also getting into pretty unusual territory. Also a ten day stretch in mid-August 2016 that only had one day below 85 (82), bookended with high 90s and triple digits. Not to mention the slew of similar events that stringed together long periods of heat without dropping below the low-mid 80s in between. All and all the duration of heatwaves without appreciable cool downs to break things up has been pretty noticeable recently. Really not much of an argument otherwise. So this should be about the time you switch gears from trying to make an actual point to poking fun at my dislike of heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 Wishcasting is fun, but don’t fool yourself into thinking nature will acquiesce. The fact that our warming climate bends to his will most of April-October has him feeling bold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was good stuff. I suppose it is fair to say persistence has persisted a bit unusually. Oh, and poor Jesse... Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad.

Front Ranger Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 Although very sun and heat faded over the past few years, we found literally hundreds of fliers stapled to power poles which promoted the newly-minted -PDO phase.

Phil Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 The 00z GFS is notably weaker with the western ridge, even in the short-medium term. Cuts the geopotential height anomaly by over 50% in parts of BC by D5, relative to the 18z. 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...

We will all have plenty of time to discuss winter weather predictions in the fall.Throw me a bone. I’m not asking for any specific prediction for next winter. Just the general reasoning behind your prediction for a long term cycle of bigger winters. It’s theoretically possible, but there are so many whens, whys, and hows re: how it may or may not happen, that it’s a difficult prediction to make.
