Phil Posted June 26, 2023 Report Share Posted June 26, 2023 Essentially all guidance is insistent on building a potent block over the Beaufort/West-Arctic region.

Defense was switched on, but it was a really good team, so I was pretty busy back in the net tonight (they only got 1 past me.) I think things fell apart as it got on the west side of Baker because I didn't get any lightning alerts on my phone. Baker did get completely obscured at one point by a heavier rain band but that's the extent of it.

the_convergence_zone Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 10 hours ago, SilverFallsAndrew said: I hear ya. I don't think whether or not the lowest elevations get snow in the winter makes much if any difference, but I understand your point. Low elevation Western Washington is probably a couple of decades out from the big fires. They are about where we were 20-25 years ago. Blissfully unaware. Someone else's problem. We’re lucky that the geography of our mountain passes is not favorable for gigantic westside fires. Bolt Creek last year was significant for us but at just 14,000 acres it is nothing compared to the real big ones. There will eventually be a big one in the Enumclaw area where the easterlies can be stronger at times but generally the winds just don’t get strong enough for a disaster as widespread as the Oregon fires. Definitely going to be more frequent fires in areas that haven’t burned in a while though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The avg high/low this time of year here is 88/79 and in January it’s 81/75. This time of year just works better for my family right now because my brother is home from college so summer is the easiest time of the year to vacation for us.
