Overall, average temp so far this May is 54.6 which is -3.8 on the month. This weekend should help skew that a little closer to normal but not sure if it will be enough to turn this from being a cooler and wetter than normal month. There is no way 3 days can skew a -3.8 average for 28 days to normal unless its like 100+ degrees each of those days. SEA is only -0.7 on the month and I believe that is using the new averages so it eliminates the UHI effect. To that point... OLM is at -0.6 for the month. Jared might have lost his big talking point.

Rushing the cool down (which looks transient anyway). Don’t see sustained troughing developing until sometime around the solstice. 14 hours ago, Phil said: Inflection/bifurcation point in tropical forcing denotes boundary for 1st of 2 western warm periods this month. Peak warmth June 4-7th as WPAC blossoms, then a (transient) cool down second week of June ahead of the next warm up. Another ridge seems probable for mid-June, just before convection enters the IO/EHEM around the summer solstice, at which point a more consistent troughy pattern can emerge. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t see sustained troughing developing until sometime around the solstice. It is exceedingly rare for the first 3 weeks of June to be warm and dry around here. Technically that did not even happen in 2015... the first 4 days of June were cool and troughy that month and it rained here each day. And then not again until the last day of the month. I just ran through the 500mb map for the summer of 2013... in late June that year we got into a pattern with a trough just offshore. This ended up being quite warm around here. Could you be seeing a troughy pattern that ends up like this? I wonder if there will a large SW ridge this summer due to drought feedback. 1 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
