Lots to consider… Maybe you have a immigration process where a certain number of folks on either side of the boundary can defect if they so choose, after a rigorous vetting process of course.

I don't know why people think I'm nuts for saying we are entering a different pattern. Does not seem too different for the next 10 days... but there will be a weak trough on Wednesday and Thursday. The days that the ECMWF shows the low clouds all the way inland seem to end up cooler than projected... like today. Tomorrow should be warmer. And then the cooler 850mb temps on Wednesday and Thursday might allow the inversion to break. The ECMWF shows basically no low clouds all the way inland from Friday through the middle of next week. So it's going to be pretty warm. The stuff after day 10 is a crapshoot. You know that. I just doubt any significant troughing over the PNW for the next couple weeks. So it's all an inversion game.

Pretty good inversion setting in. Yeah, it's clear that every model has its own weaknesses in different patterns for surface temps. Overall, it seems that the current GFS runs too warm for most locations, and the Euro runs too cool for a few locations in the summer...but the Euro is definitely closer overall. It was much maligned for its "cool bias" leading up to the big heatwave, but within a few days I think it was actually a bit closer to reality than the GFS.

I just don't know what your point is with anything you've been posting.

Here's the facts about summers here: - They've seen an overall warming trend that goes back all the way to the beginning of observed records in the PNW starting in the 1800s - That trend has accelerated in the last 40ish years - There have been blips in that trend along the way, sometimes lasting for a decade+, see the 1950s - 2010 was a cooler and cloudier summer than 2009, then in the decade since then we've seen a bunch of even warmer and even sunnier summers - The marine layer has been much less prevalent since 2012, something clear even to casual observers living here The ad hominem is because it seems like your primary motivation with this is to try to downplay the warmth we've been seeing.

Since you apparently didn't read my other response to Jesse, let me repost it for you. Not sure why you felt the need to type out a bunch of stuff I mostly agree with. But you seem way too concerned with my motivations. Sounds like you were reading a bit much into what I said... nothing about long term climate uncertainty. Just commentary on the nature of *trends*, people's perspective on them, and how sometimes they reverse. 2009 was a near record sunny summer in Seattle. It was followed by a near record cloudy summer. I think sometimes people can be a bit too prisoner of the moment on here. Not saying there haven't been less marine layer days in recent years, I'm sure there have. But that doesn't mean it's a trend that can't or won't reverse. But I understand if you'd prefer to just listen to an unending chorus of Californication. 1 Quote A forum for the end of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember all those posts about "where else on earth would you find something like this" last week? You made a couple yourself. They all came back to the record high temps, obviously. To go straight from record-smashing temps to essentially normal the next day and going forward, and not coming closer than 40 degrees of those temps, to me was interesting.

Not sure why you felt the need to type out a bunch of stuff I mostly agree with. But you seem way too concerned with my motivations. Sounds like you were reading a bit much into what I said... nothing about long term climate uncertainty. Just commentary on the nature of *trends*, people's perspective on them, and how sometimes they reverse. 2009 was a near record sunny summer in Seattle. It was followed by a near record cloudy summer. I think sometimes people can be a bit too prisoner of the moment on here. Not saying there haven't been less marine layer days in recent years, I'm sure there have. But that doesn't mean it's a trend that can't or won't reverse. But I understand if you'd prefer to just listen to an unending chorus of Californication. No, I read it. This is just downplaying with a bunch of "we don't know what the future holds" handwaving. Like I said, the most obvious stuff in the world without any real point. Also a little ironic you're telling me I'm too concerned with your motivations while simultaneously saying other people are too prisoner of the moment, no? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, the most obvious stuff in the world without any real point. You read into it more than read it. Like I said, I agreed with almost everything you said. Obvious stuff that you seem to think somehow proves a point to me? 1 Quote A forum for the end of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn’t it you who was giving out free reminders about a large ocean to our west? It matters. 3 Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad.
