snow_wizard Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Looks like it hasn't happened since 1955. That first eight days of July 1955 was frigid even compared to this year though. PDX only hit 70 once in that stretch. 1955 had an incredible August. Very cool, but also dry with a lot of sunshine. A very rare August indeed. 1 Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

BLI snowman Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 I'd have to look, but I think it's been a pretty long time since PDX hasn't topped 75 the first eight days of July. Could make a run at nine tomorrow. Good call. In fact, 1955 is the only other time this has happened in PDX history. Arbitrary accomplishment but still pretty interesting to go so deep into July with so little warmth. Edit: I see you already found this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meatyorologist Posted July 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Developing a thicker skin for this forum would be beneficial for you. A few posters will always troll, a few others will always complain, and a few others have maintained their annoying habits even while everyone else harps on them to change for over a decade. In other words, don't feel the need to change just because people are giving you a bad time. As long as you provide semi-meaningful weather commentary, you are already doing better than some. Especially around this time of year where we seemingly get into preference back-and-forths that last pages.I discovered this forum back in December 2018 after Fred recommended me through my Twitter DM's. This place has turned out to be a really cool community of very real human beings, focusing on my area of interest nonetheless. I only wish I'd discovered it sooner. Needless to say, I'll be here for quite some time. 2 Quote Weather stats for MBY Snowfall: -Total snowfall since joining: 50.25" -2018-19: 21" -2019-20: 2.5" -2020-21: 13" -2021-22: 8.75" -2022-23: 5.75" -2023-24*: 0.25" -Most recent snowfall: 0.25”; January 17th, 2024 -Largest snowfall (single storm): 8.5"; February 12-13, 2021 -Largest snow depth: 14"; 1:30am February 12th, 2019 Temperatures: -Warmest: 109F; June 28th, 2021 -Coldest: 13F; December 27th, 2021 -Phreeze Count 2023-24: 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... the first half of July last year was terrible in that regard. There was barely any sun at all here which is very unusual for that long during the summer. There was a distinct north-south gradient last year though and it was much more sunny from Portland southward.
