PDX and HIO have both hit 70.

Beautiful day outside!

 

Now the next goal is to get into the 80s. Hopefully before the month ends.

Let's try really hard guys. If we give it our best effort we can do it!

[Phil]

Maybe everyone will be wrong and there’ll be a nationwide cool summer like 1964.

 

That’d be awesome.

That’d be awesome.

I bet you would love a entire summer of temps in the upper 70s and low 80s. I would too!

 

You cheer for below normal and I cheer for a little above normal. And we cheer for the same tangible weather.

Sweaty.

69

[MossMan]

I'm sorry, but these snapshots are much too clear. Please be sure to blur them more next time. Thanks!

This is the best that I can do. Ever since my phone did an update the zoomed in screen shots have been way too clear.

[Frontal Snowsquall]

Sweaty.

Good way to release toxins.

[Deweydog]

No thanks.

 

Maybe if you shower first and buy me a nice takeout dinner...

No 80+ in sight. Probably won't happen this month. Hasn't happened since 9/12.

[Anti Marine Layer]

Luckily... Easter sill looks sunny and pleasant. That will be a blessing.

Only for those who like sunny weather.

[MossMan]

I made some new walking trails in our woods today, what a nice day for it! Currently 49 degrees after a high of 59.

[Front Ranger]

No 80+ in sight. Probably won't happen this month. Hasn't happened since 9/12.

 

Low..

[Jesse]

72/34 here today. Nice diurnal temp range. 

 

Should end up a couple degrees warmer tomorrow. Then looking like a nice temperature drop Friday and Saturday.

[Jesse]

No 80+ in sight. Probably won't happen this month. Hasn't happened since 9/12.

 

We will probably hit 80 before the month is over.

Seems like we're in one of those situations right now where a ridge just reforms over us no matter what happens.

[Jesse]

At least the nights cool off quickly even with warming days this time of year. Down to 49 here.

You mean all times of year? Y’all have a huge diurnal cycle out there.

 

Especially in the summer?

[Jesse]

Some potential for a pattern change toward day 10 in the Euro.

 

But the models have been a mess beyond day five or so lately. It really does seem that accuracy has dropped off in the last month or so thanks to less flight data.

00Z EPS stays warm... sort of the opposite of late March when it just stayed cold.  Now everything has shifted east a little.  Amplified patterns cut both ways.   I am sure it will flip back again soon enough.

Yeah, I'm not expecting spring to be totally dry. We should switch back to troughy weather sometime before summer.

As long as it turns wet again for at least one day between now and July it's okay.
