June (July) 2020 Weather Discussion for the PNW

[Front Ranger]

Grass color has really taken a hit the past few days.

 

It's 104 in North Bend, but Tim still hasn't had to water his grass.

[GobBluth]

The heat is causing people to lose their minds. How did someone honestly think that this is a good parking spot along one of the deadliest roads in the state...C’MON!!!

I'll be that guy, but four months of being locked down at home, probably no AC when it's in the 90s, I could see the populace taking chances to cool down somewhere. The crowds yesterday along the wilson river on hwy 6 were nuts. Desperation to get out of the heat.

Only 91 here... and I have had to water my grass!  

 

It was a special occasion that seems to occur only every 23 months now... but used to happen more frequently.

He does live quite a bit higher than town itself.

Oddly enough... its 92 in North Bend and 93 at the station up here at my elevation.  

[Blizzard777]

Sun has been blotted out in SE PDX 97*

 

Federal Way 89*

[Blizzard777]

Love this kind of weather as well! Hot with some humidity. Dead still outside with that possibility of convection.

Edit: SE PDX

[Front Ranger]

Here's a shocker - OLM may beat PDX today!

[Deweydog]

Long way to 101...

[MossMan]

It’s always tornado degrees outside on the Kevin scale.

[Blizzard777]

Federal Way 95* at 4:17 currently 93*

Dropped to 94* here in SE PDX

 

Time to start the BBQ

[GobBluth]

Hillsboro and McMinnville teasing a SW wind switch. They may have reached their maxes just short of 100.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

PDX May do it!

[SilverFallsAndrew]

PDX sitting at 99.

 

SLE with a pathetic 95, now down to 91.

[TigerWoodsLibido]

99F now. 90 number 8 on the year.

[TacomaWaWx]

Only 86 here...still not done heating up though could still add on 1-2 degrees like yesterday. Hottest day of the year so far obviously.

[Kayla]

Crazy that we were one of the cooler spots. Got up to 99F for our 8th day over 90.

 

 

99F now. 90 number 8 on the year.

 

I'm having a serious case of deja vu....

[TacomaWaWx]

Down to 84 now...so it’s looking like today’s spread will be 86/61.

[MossMan]

Had a high of 88.

[Timmy Supercell]

So this is what t'storms are doing in 2020, at least in July... August ones should be wetter (look below for my reasoning).

 

 

 

 

I apologize for my language but August storms have ******* flooded my area, so this will not persist through the rest of summer.

It just will not. Better times are in the near future.

I apologize for my language but August storms have f***** flooded my area, so this will not persist through the rest of summer.

It just will not. Better times are in the near future.

 

 

Gross.  

[Blizzard777]

Down to 84 now...so it’s looking like today’s spread will be 86/61.

[Blizzard777]

Wow what a difference. Your location gets bigger diurnal swings.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

To many clouds from the Cascade storms here. Only made it to 83.

[Phil]

The first two seem more likely than the last one.

2 out of 3. Stupid OLM.

 

How the heck did they hit 98?

[Phil]

What’s the heat advisory criteria in Seattle?

 

The one issued today was for highs of 90-95. Pretty sure that’s below the threshold?

[Deweydog]

Cooling down here.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

PDX hit 100. Back to back baby!!!

[VancouverIslandSouth]

Only 84F here today, a bit warmer than the last heatwave. It'll be interesting to see what Thursday brings. It's going to be hot, but I wonder if that southerly flow will start pulling in the smoke from southern OR; hopefully not.

[Phil]

Those coastal temps tho.

Well I’ll be d*mned.

 

Squeezed every ounce of potential heating out of that airmass despite NW flow.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Those coastal temps tho.

 

Up here in the foothills it was a lot cooler too due to cloud cover. A bit humid though. Quite a bit of distant thunder right now over the high cascades.

I was closer than you. 

[MossMan]

Down to 69.

[FroYoBro]
