SilverFallsAndrew Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 For the first time in the 12 years I have lived at this location, I have rats. I'm gonna need how to figure out how to get them and not the untold thousands of nearby squirrels. Get a cat. Whenever I used to go out to Starlight in downtown I would always see rats scurrying around their outside seating area.

Blizzard777 Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 Get a cat. Whenever I used to go out to Starlight in downtown I would always see rats scurrying around their outside seating area. YumNest cam picks up half a dozen cats working my property at night but the rats prevail. Although I’ve won the war under the house they have a tunnel system in and throughout my rock retaining wall that goes to neighboring yards. Crows will pick them off if they stay in the open to long as I have witnessed. Otherwise and endless battle of poison and traps. I also have and battery operated box that electrifies them. But rats seem to learn and now don’t go in box! They be smart! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everyone is fortunate enough to live in a climate with summers so heavenly that there’s wiggle room to debate them. Sometimes? You never stop with the strawman trolling! Last summer was much wetter than this summer. And nobody has said this summer has been unusual here. We still talk about what is happening. Cool, drizzly days happen even in warmer than normal summers. We talk about what is happening. And some of us really enjoy our sunny periods. But that is just weather preference crap and its pointless, Phil. Completely pointless. Nobody is going to change their mind on what they like.

I’ve never been great at predicting surface temperature anomalies out there (slowly learning, but it takes awhile without the native knowledge). The upper level pattern progression seems more straightforward to me, though. Aleutian ridge, GOA/AK troughing (+NPO/+EPO), and a strong 4CH. Which historically has produced a zonal temperature/moisture gradient, and near average conditions on the westside for the most part. I think heat is more favored east of the cascades.

I think heat is more favored east of the cascades.And given continued large scale subsidence over the WPAC/dateline, I think you have to lean cool (or at least away from prolonged heat/ridging) in August as well. At least until late in the month. Though the low pass +VP signal has migrated west slowly since the spring equinox. So maybe the second half of August features more dynamic pathways to heat. September probably would regardless. But this regime is nothing like that of the post-2013 years. Inverted if anything. WPAC subsidence, NE-Canada ridging/-NAO, and N/NE Pacific ridging.
