June Weather in the Pacific Northwest

[Jesse]

Its both January and June perfection! Wish we could have the same weather every day all year long.

 

This region would be so crowded though. Everyone loves 45-degree drizzle all summer... that is why Baffin Island is so popular of course.

There is no true yin to this yang.

You can get on a sarcasm roll when it come to warm anomalies.

True. I think no one else here ever uses sarcasm.

[Front Ranger]

Too bad you can't take the same detached enjoyment in your own. There have been times nearly the whole forum has been pointing them out to you in unison, yet you still refused to acknowledge them. Pretty strange/entertaining.

 

As long as everyone's having a good time!

You mean Hippa Island? Baffin Island rarely gets that warm..it’s just a bunch of glaciers and tiny villages sitting underneath a semi-permanent vortex of icy death.

 

Jesse’s dreamworld.

[TT-SEA]

Clyde River on Baffin Island would be a dream climate for some here... bitter cold and darkness all winter and lots of 45-degree drizzle all summer.    

 

 

 

And of course a place with such lovely summers is going to be very crowded.

Sounds cold and depressing.

Lol, and Clyde River isn’t even the coldest location on the Island (yep, I’ve scoured the place).

[TT-SEA]

00Z ECMWF is not as wet as its 12Z run.   

 

Much more showery on Saturday rather than the widespread rain shown on the 12Z run.    And less showery on Sunday.

[Jesse]

I love how being ok with some warm season rain in a mid-latitude temperate rainforest climate suddenly turns to wanting to live on a barren, glacier covered island.

That is pretty awful news. I figured the way you were making such a big stink about the GFS the Euro would trend your way.

You know you’d love it there.

 

At least half of their glaciers are expanding, and many of them run right down to sea level! #heaven

Hyperbole is this forum's first language.

Over half of their glaciers are expanding now, and many of them run right down to sea level! #heaven

 

Sounds perfect for you.

[TT-SEA]

Lol, and Clyde River isn’t even the coldest location on the Island (yes, I’ve researched itl).

 

It has dream summers though!    

 

I did not check... but I bet its population is more than all of the southern and eastern US combined.     

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Thought I would pop on here and mention the temp is already down to 42, probably going to be in the upper 30s by morning. 

[Jesse]

This is a ridiculously hyperbolic statement.

[Front Ranger]

This is a ridiculously hyperbolic statement.

Case in point.

Not really trending my way exactly... still showery and cool all weekend.

 

If I have to donate a precious summer weekend... I hope everywhere gets completely soaked so we have something to show for it.   

[Phil]

And likewise, Tim should move to Death Valley or Dubai.

 

Both climates are something out of his wildest fantasies.

How are totals for Portland looking versus the 12Z?

Are you "time traveling" again?

Hyperbole/sarcasm combo!!

[Phil]

Maybe..

[Jesse]

Attempt at being above the fray/attempt at humor combo!

[TT-SEA]

Less... but still pretty good.  

 

About 1.1 inches on 12Z run and .80 inches on 00Z run.     Must be a PDX favorable showery pattern.

Ugh...

 

Lots of time for things to go either way still....but that trainwreck that was the month of May has robbed me of the ability to hope.

[Phil]

Dewey is riding high up in the thermosphere, while Flatiron is stuck in the lower stratosphere. Doubtful he ever catches up.

I am still recovering from April myself.     

[Front Ranger]

Sure?

 

It was a 100% accurate statement.

[Front Ranger]

April gave you precious ammo that you've milked for all it's worth.

[Jesse]

The last 1/3 of April was warm and sunny with a record setting heat event.

 

If 1/3 of May had been cool and wet with a record setting cold event I would have been a pretty happy camper. Literally!

[TT-SEA]

April gave you precious ammo that you've milked for all it's worth.

 

The second half of January and first half of February were a complete trainwreck as well.

How high are you?

[Front Ranger]

Without those 2 weeks in April, the Feb-May period would have been D**n dry.

 

Either way, one of the driest Mays ever for the region...the latest in a long series of record dry periods in recent years. They just keep coming.

[BLI snowman]

I've had about 0.50" of rain the past 7 weeks. We are becoming more Mediterranean by the week.

So do the ridiculously wet years!

 Nice if you like destructive fires and dead grass.

Hyperbole! The south of France and Tuscany are lovely.
