Popular Post Jesse 8910 Posted August 2, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 Had a warm time camping, but thanks to the elevation it was a lot more pleasant than what the lowlands experienced. I will say, Cascade River and Cascade Pass area of the North Cascades National Park is beautiful. Got home on what was the nicest day in about a week too, so that was good timing. 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Last August was pretty nice in terms of rainfall...had 1.57” total last year. Doubt we get that much this August. This summers been diffrent than last year in the regard that June 2019 was dry and warm...but things progressively got wetter as we went through the summer. This year we started off wet in June and early July...but dried out in the second half of July which is more normal. Last summer the grass was yellow and dried up by the beginning of June but was mostly green by late August...inverse of this summer.

Probably more of a result of the upper level pattern... at least that is what Matt would say. I wonder if that small area of near normal temps offshore has an effect? Overall... it looks like the "blob" is alive and well but it does not quite reach the PNW coastline.

Much better than last summer where the Blob was in full swing and we were getting nights in the mid-60s at PDX effortlessly.I think that had to do more with the upper level pattern than the “blob”. Lots of moist southerly flow last summer. We’ve had our more normal NW flow this year so far. The blob is definitely dead now, though. Lots of upwelling along the coast the last few months. Although again that is also a result of the upper level pattern. Southerly flow at 500mb is not great for upwelling. So the warm nights is kind of a chicken vs egg thing in that case since the same upper level patterns that are conducive to warm temps offshore also tend to be conducive to warm nights in the summer, regardless of blobbiness. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
