June 2020 Weather Discussion for the PNW


Recommended Posts

Fort Lauderdale and Miami average about 62 inches of rain a year so good to see some areas get that much and even more. Strong rain shadow for Hillsboro, not as extreme as the Olympic rain shadow but it’s evident. Omega why don’t you move already? Move to Washougal and you get 2 feet of more rain a year hehheh

I’m 16 turning 17 in August. At the moment, moving is not an option.

God I hope so. Last winter was nothing but a bunch of blue balls from all the "so close yet so far" events we had in the south/central sound.

Yeah I still am recovering from the great model collapse of January 2020. We still got a little snow so it wasn’t the worst year ever...but it was weird going from such a cold snowy Winter the previous year to a rather lame one.

It’d be nice to get a few summers closer to climo like last summer was. Maybe last summer and this summer are the beginning of a change to more normal summers after the 2013-2018 period of hot ones.

If you believe in global warming then the answer is no and our summers will get hotter.

Without thunderstorms no real exiting weather happens in Clorida except for the occasional hurricane or tropical storm. I still remember Hurricane Andrew. I thought I wasn’t going to make it.

Can’t imagine what it must’ve been like to experience a Category 5 hurricane. Worse than the most extreme derechos and it lasts for hours.

 

My scariest weather experiences are all derechos and downbursts. If those give me adrenaline rushes, a Category 5 would probably flat-line me. :lol:

We loved far enough north to escape the category 5 winds but I remember the gust were extreme and would come out of no where. It just ripped like you wouldn’t imagine. It gave everyone screams in the house and I remember my neighbors screaming. The first few hours were intense and we all prayed it would end soon.

Not in sight.

 

I was reading through the July 2012 thread and it was interesting to see everyone was cheering for summer and thought cold rain at this time of year was pretty miserable. :lol:

How much snow did you get during December 2008?

 

I lived in SW Yamhill County at the time and had a foot of snow, an inch of ice, and another foot of snow.

 

EUG had a bit of snow going into the initial Arctic airmass and then a couple of sub-freezing highs but then moderated as the low came in just a bit too far to the north so as to bring them marine surface winds.

 

EUG also hasn't had a White Christmas since 1990. Their longest streak on record without one.

Kinda disappointing how whiny most the posters are here, even after such a dry and sunny spring. Oh well.

 

Seems like the forum in general has gotten softer over the years. I guess a bunch of California-lite warm seasons will do that.

If it doesn't stop raining soon, I'm punching a baby.

 

 

Looks like the pattern finally begins changing at the end of next week.

That's good to hear. BTW, our weather preferences are the same. We get enough rainy weather regardless of the year. Warm anomalies in the spring and fall are welcome.

Really delighted to get some climatologically normal late-spring rain and cool weather here after the unremitting desiccated blowtorches of recent years. I was beginning to question whether there was any point in my moving here from SoCal if the weather was going to be the same.

 

We should have 4 of us here in the south valley soon enough once Requiem is able to get down to UofO to take classes and begin to attend keggers.

Yikes.

 

Anyway... how ‘bout that weather???

It sucks. My jetski is very sad sitting in my shop.

Elevation 580’ Location a few miles east of I-5 on the Snohomish Co side of the Snohomish/Skagit border. I love snow/cold AND sun/warmth!

Good. Your jet skiing is a product of your privilege.

Indeed...That and also a product of working my a** off doing back breaking manual labor in 2002 to buy it brand spanking new!

And all we had to show for that labor was a jet ski and winter 2002-03. Thanks.

Lots of people do back breaking manual labour for work and still can’t afford a jet ski.

 

Phil said summer would peak early this year so this could be as good as it gets.

Probably late June or early July? Like 2016 without the August heatwave, maybe.

 

There’s a warm spike coming later this month into the early portion of July before the glorious weather returns.
