Gorgeous sunset from Mt Tabor park. Lots of big, downed trees on the north and east side of the park from our ARCTIC WINDS three weeks ago. But honestly the damage wasn’t quite as bad as I feared. I guess the historic shelter took a pretty good hit but that part of the park was cordoned off.
I was intrigued so I looked up the average high and low temperatures across WA for August of 1899. Olga's average low of 45F is pretty impressive as it's about 4 degrees colder than anything we've seen in the last 50 years. The fact it's so much colder than every other location on the west side does make me wonder if there was an error with the thermometer at that time or maybe it was just incredible cold winds blowing off the straight.
The Seattle average high for the month was almost 10 d
I think the summer is going to be stuck in a >XKZ/HLT pattern under WFG+/ABC- conditions, due to the HVJE/KSUF forcing in the +1A-HDW region of the JSHDW/North Antarctic Ocean, causing a mass FNEO× pattern in the PRHEU layer of the atmosphere. This summer is going to be a peak HFHSOUF/IFGDSJ- pattern in the east coast, and a UFHEJ+ pattern in the west coast. Just my opinion based on the HDGS/PAHF/IAHC+×-< forcing.
90s already beginning here.
5 months from now it’ll be late September..and probably have the same exact weather only more humid. Why can’t winter last half the year too?
I’m liking the -NAO signal heading into May, though. Many of the post-niño summers have a period of late-spring blocking, offering a final reprieve before hell starts. Hopefully we can take advantage of that opportunity.
Also would be another sign the system state is far-removed from the +TNH state that has dominated the majority of recent summers.
