Lol..6/1 to 7/14 will be closer climatological “normal” than the coming warm spell.

 

There’s nothing “normal” about the +10 anomalies coming up. :lol:

I managed to get an iphone shot tonight, I was looking too far west, and it was really hard to see at first with all of the light pollution. 

Yours looks brighter then mine! 

I was looking to far west as well under the Big Dipper.  Then I finally caught the fuzzy looking light more to the NW with the naked eye.  Had binoculars and that was much better.

Next week looking like a seasonal realignment per the GFS, or a temporal hot blast per the Euro/EPS/GEM?

There’s nothing “normal” about the +10 anomalies coming up for the next few weeks. :lol:

 

Around here... its common for people to define the start of "real" summer when consistent sun and dry weather arrives and not so much by anomalies.   This is usually around the first or second week of July based on climo.      As I said before... I think its because we associate frequent rain with winter unlike other parts of the country.     Its just a different perspective out here.

? There have been many warm/hot spells throughout the years in the PNW. I'd say nearly every summer features at least one hot period. Seems pretty normal to me...

Its definitely been a cool first half of July... the coming warmth will probably swing the month to warmer than normal but not by a large departure overall.

Given it has not rained this month, real summer started at the end of June.

Waiting for a cool summer month in the PNW is like waiting for a cold January. Just a mirage.

"Real" summer usually starts earlier down there... of course.

It’s not a seasonal realignment. It’s an intraseasonal cycle driven by a CCKW crossing the pacific w/ an in-situ tropical/subtropical -AAM moat presently a holding pattern.

 

I’d mentioned July 15-25th a little while back. Could run a little shorter or longer on the backside, I suppose, but the theme(s) aren’t changing, in my opinion.

You nailed it... I have to give you credit.

 

And that also means we might have a wet and chilly in August based on your forecast.   It would be nice to have our usual 4-6 week period with virtually no rain.

So it could be 65°F and sunny everyday and y’all would be calling that “normal” summer weather?

Why do I doubt that?

Pretty hard to have 65 and sunny this time of year. If its sunny then its usually in the low 70s at least.

They don’t call hot spells “normal spells”, do they?

 

I now have people arguing it’s “normal” for DC to string together 20+ consecutive days above 90°F. Well, no it’s actually not “normal” at all..even if this weather is generally close to that of a typical summer, we usually get 1-3 day breaks several times a month.

When all is said and done, good chance that this is yet another warmer + drier than average month regionally.

 

I am sure Tim and Randy will find some way to complain about it.

We demand perfection!     Not too hot... and not cold.   Not too dry and not too wet.     Goldilocks weather.    :)

I’ve had nearly 2” of rain so far this month. Time for you to move north!

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!

Wow. I've only had .88" here. Had a low of 47F for the third sub-50F low in a row after a high of 78F yesterday.

Yeah I definitely have you beat for July!
