TT-SEA Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 Tim is on the edge this morning Nah... just having having fun with the crappy weather. Nothing we can do about it. Although we still have to decide whether its worth staying here for the weekend. I hate to miss the first weekend without rain since Mother's Day.

TT-SEA Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 12Z GFS looks screwy for the 4th... its shows it being warmer in Seattle than in Portland. The reason is that it shows low clouds down there and not up here. Yesterday it was showing low 80s in Portland for the 4th.

It can also get pretty warm in September. A long stretch of warm and sunny weather will eventually come. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 First 1/3 of the month looks solidly cool at this point. Beyond that is anyone's guess.If a warm up is gonna happen, I think the 15th-25th has the most potential. Could see a CCKW/pseudo MJO over the Pacific/warm pool around that timeframe, which opens up more dynamic pathways to +PNA. Wouldn’t be long lasting, though. 2 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 Strong wind and drizzle for the 3rd day in a row. The wind has been roaring here since Tuesday. The wind observations at SEA also look like November since Tuesday. Constant gusty S and SW winds. Can't remember so much sustained wind like this in the summer. Its honestly felt more like winter here.Rubbing it in, aren’t ya? Driving back to the swamp tomorrow.

Phil Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 The 2016 analog has been thrown out there. It had an average July but then a hot August. I could see around average but I doubt we see a cool month.If a cool August were to happen, this would be the year to do it. The west-Pacific has been shut down completely thus far. Low-pass signal for subsidence right over the longitudinal band that would produce a hot western summer if convection were there. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy Supercell Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 Medford was a whole degree below average last month, and I think I was around avg.

It can also get pretty warm in September. A long stretch of warm and sunny weather will eventually come. There have been quite a few years PDX gets heat in early September, 90's even. And over on the east sides it can be one of our driest months of the year if there is no convection (Sep can be hit-and-miss for t'storms here). 1 Quote Ashland, KY Weather '23-'24 Winter Snowfall - 5.50" First freeze: 11/1 (32) Minimum: 2 on 1/17 Measurable snows: 4 Max 1 day snow: 3" (1/19) Thunders: 16 1/27, 1/28, 2/10, 2/22, 2/27, 2/28, 3/5, 3/6, 3/14, 3/15 3/26, 3/30, 3/31, 4/2, 4/3, 4/8, Severe storms: 2 ------------------------------------------------------- [Klamath Falls, OR 2010 to 2021] https://imgur.com/SuGTijl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see why people can’t just roll with some coolish early summer weather, especially considering the last several years of unprecedented blowtorches. Obviously things were going to flip back a little at some point. But it’s unlikely we see a coolish stretch of years that will ever rival the stretch of warm seasons we have seen recently, in terms of anomalousness. In fact I would still say there’s a better than bad chance this summer as a whole ends up warmer than average, despite all the belllyaching. Seems really irrational. Guess I just shouldn’t let it bother me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of what happened in past years or if its perfectly normal to have periods like this in the summer. Its been downright miserable and summer is short enough up here. It is what it is. Complaining does not change it but its a way of venting.
