Cliff mentions strong easterly winds Thursday/Friday, which shouldn't bring much smoke over our area because, "The winds will be more southeasterly with far less feed from bc...where the big fires are."

Really good soaking on the 12Z ECMWF from Seattle eastward next Tuesday and Wednesday... would be excellent for southern BC as well.

I'm just looking at the calendar YTD. Although even if you're looking at the water year, L.A. comes out slightly ahead. 

California's old water year was July 1-June 30th. All records were official using this system until 5-10 years ago when they switched. I'm still a bit annoyed they switched to align with the fiscal year.

Hopefully Central WA gets their turn too. Eastern WA and Eastern OR had some nice rain the last few days.

Looks like we are down to the last 2-3 heat waves of summer.  👿 

I wasn’t expecting this summer to carry on so long after such an early start.  Kind of thought things would have crashed in august. 

Always a bad idea to bet against summertime torching.

By all accounts we should have with the kind of trajectory that we started with. But I guess we have to get ourselves out of that antiquated 20th century climo mindset. New rules now!!

Except Friday morning and potentially mid next week.

The Euro shows the precip dodging the Eugene area Friday morning. Hopefully we can get some of the drink next week. The landscape is as parched as I've ever seen it.

I just got a red flag warning for extreme fire danger for Thursday and Friday for Washington and Oregon foothills. It said there was going to be low humidity and winds of 20-30 mph. Anyone know anything about that?

Unfortunately. Looks like 2-3 more 90F burgers if not more down the road.
