August 2019 Weather Discussion for the PNW

[Anti Marine Layer]

Newport was up to 88 F yesterday, but today it's back to the usual chilly marine layer influence.

[Dave]

d**n!

I couldn’t help myself and clicked on the pic you posted the other day. Pretty gnarly. I’m glad you were able to bounce back from that.

Thank you. Strangely, the pain wasn't too bad. The doctors told me that was due to so much nerve damage. Lol

[High Desert Mat?]

Now I’m thinking a Jesse and Flatiron faceoff. Who would win?

Is he well over 6’ as well? Not that Mark is.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Portland falls 2 degrees short of 100 F.

[Deweydog]

PDX down to 97...

[BLI snowman]

Would be nice to have the Portland radar back up some time this year.

[TT-SEA]

Would be nice to have the Portland radar back up some time this year.

 

 

In the next 12 hours would be nice.

9-3

9-3

The first day of summer.

[Deweydog]

The first day of summer.

Summer starts on 6-1, appendixless.

[Timmy Supercell]

Thunder confirmed. Now, will these be worth anything is the ultimate question. I haven't touched my cameras all day yet.

 

Dust collecting on my camera... 

[Jesse]

Summer starts on 6-1, appendixless.

I see you’re coming around.

[Dave]

Will someone please fix the pdx radar? I want to do my part, so I searched my garage for helpful supplies I could donate. So far, I have an old can of wd-40, a half roll of duct tape, and a set of jumper cables.

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

Great day for a hike, wish I could be up there.[/quoteIt was 55 degrees at 14275. Very warm I thought.

[Timmy Supercell]

Petrichor filling the house. Smells godly. I wish there were more epic storms though. 

[Frontal Snowsquall]

Just had a light shower here in Gresham.

[Phil]

For the umpteenth time, treating all neutral ENSOs as equals (by their ONI value) is a huge mistake and will lead to a slew of busted forecasts for those who do it.

[TigerWoodsLibido]

Still 75F in town.

[Rubus Leucodermis]

Oh well. 

 

Warm and dry September and October... a couple weeks of storms in early November... and then a frozen winter wonderland from Thanksgiving to New Years... and then an early spring.

 

Is that asking so much??  

 

Sounds like you're no longer officially sick of snow anymore after getting three feet of it last February.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Looks like they got some monsoonal moisture up there, or it could also be the remnants of Ivo.

[Dave]

Definitely feeling a marine push here. It appears that our heat gesture is over.

There's still time for your Nino call to work out, Phil.

Who's they?

[El_Nina]

It sprinkled here around 7.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Who's they?

Some areas of the Pacific Northwest.

I haven’t seen anyone actually make a meaningful forecast at this point.

[TacomaWaWx]

Latest gfs run looks wetter for western WA over the next 4 days. Little rain Thursday and then the rain on Sunday looks slightly more potent than the Thursday system.

[TT-SEA]

Every holiday weekend this summer has been model inconsistency mania right to the end with meandering ULLs.

[El_Nina]

Very humid tonight. Looks like the radar is working at least halfway.

[TT-SEA]

Its all or nothing with the radar. And I don't see evidence that is has been back up.

[El_Nina]

I just thought maybe it was since some green was showing over my area.

[El_Nina]

Hopefully Portland can mimick the Phoneix area right now in the morning.

[Deweydog]

Phil is gonna have a phield day with this one.

It just bugs me to see “ENSO neutral” plastered all over the internet as if it’s some one-size-fits-all definition that can be applied/used deterministically.

[Jesse]

Lots of warm and cloudy nights over the next week or so it appears. Reminds me a little of late August/early September 2013.

About what?

[Timmy Supercell]

Today ended up being a non-event. Yes heard thunder but nothing to write home about. 

 

I hope in September I get something more exciting than that.

Quite a few lightning-caused fires though from today. Lot of strikes down there and in N. Cali.

It's kinda seeming like your area isn't doing great in our new climate regime. A lot less winter snow, much hotter, much more prone to drought and also a drop in summer convection.

An elder was just telling me not long ago how when she was younger, she would have trouble seeing past the snow banks at intersections just to turn there in Klamath Falls. Says that was a normal winter phenomena.
