Bootleg Fire up to 77k acres

I was going to guess last night it was 60k or so 77k is a pretty big fire. 

Tacoma WA elevation 300’

Monthly rainfall-3.56”

Warm season rainfall-11.14”

Max temp-88

+80 highs-2

+85 highs-2

That’s one heck of a CCKW. Transits the Atlantic then back into the W-IO during the 3rd week of July.

Second IO pulse would follow in early August. If this is accurate, then it’s almost three weeks later/slower than I thought just a month ago. Ugly, ugly miss on my part. 😳

Translate for us... does this mean a continuation of cold and troughy for the rest of the summer now?

I'm pretty happy with it.  At the very least the doom and gloom proclamations about the rest of this summer were apparently overblown.

The hottestsummereva crowd has made it clear they're going down with the ship.

It was a historic heatwave. Doesn't define a whole summer, though.

We should be good atleast for another week or so. 

In 2017... we made it all the way through July with steady onshore flow and no smoke.  

Then the pattern amplified at the start of August and smoke poured in from north and east.

I have never been in the hottest summer ever crowd... but it is probably important to recognize the north/south gradient in temperature so far.    South of Portand... the heat has been much more consistent.

Of course. But then you have the Andrews of the world making proclamations about the summer that don't apply further north.

But he always has been Mr. My Location, so no shocker there.

He never said he was speaking for western WA though.    I understand his perspective.  It's a reality down there.

Pretty fair marine layer this morning.  I just missed being in the low clouds here.  We are certainly in an extremely consistent regime right now.

Even if you were to play make believe and turn June 26-28 into a mortal event that was within climo expectations, it’s been a pretty hot summer thus far for most of the region. Wouldn’t take much effort at all for it to end up one of the hottest on record at this point, Mr. Spiketheballatthe42yardline.

Come on Tim, this is just nihilism with a layer of Zen makeup. If we knew for months in advance that a 6 mile diameter meteor was headed towards us, would you say we shouldn't try to deflect it or break it up because it's natural and happened before 66 million years ago? And if you think we should try to do something in that scenario, why would it be any different for climate change and environmental degradation if we thought we could do something about it?

Of course the planet will recover just fine in a relative geological blink almost no matter what do, but what most people care about is maintaining conditions to continue prosperous and healthy human civilization long into the future.

I just had to comment on this whole thing after seeing the pinned post about things always changing.  The fact is they do and there is nothing we can do about it.  I think that's the point Tim was trying to make.  I think some of the consternation stems from the fact the media is trying to make it sound like climate change is something new, while in fact it has been happening since the Earth was formed.  In the past we have had catastrophic climate change in a relative blink of an eye all without man even being on the Earth.  I read something once where a climate scientist said the climate has only been as good as it is now 5% of the time over the past several million years.  Mankind has thrived in a climate regime that has been abnormally favorable.  There is nothing we can do to stop it from evolving back to what it has been the other 95% of the time.

Thanks Tim. It's true. I'm not claiming Seattle is having their hottest summer on record. Front Ranger is one of those people who acts like the PNW is essentially the Puget Sound region.

I'm not so sure about all of the points you've made here.  The warmest SEA has been this month is a very pedestrian 81, and there isn't anything all that warm on the horizon in the model world.  The first half of June was also a bit below normal for many areas.  No doubt the insane heatwave kind of upped the ante though.

The fact is you can go back and find posts from mid-June where I am saying this was going to likely be the 2nd warmest June on record. Of course none of thought what happened in late June would happen, but it was still obviously a warm month. And July has been warm/hot in Oregon, SW WA and Eastern Washington.

Even up here quite a few places ran big positive anomalies last month and through the first 1/3 of this month it’s above to well above normal too. Hottest on record down there doesn’t seem unreasonable and I think that it’ll end up a pretty warm one up here too.

I get accused of being "Mr. My Location," but the fact is my comments are reflective of about 90% of the region, I get you live in Seattle, but it is the exception, not the norm for the region this month. Shawnigan even mentioned it has been a very warm July there so far.

I wasn’t really trying to make a point, more just stating a fact. Flatiron is right in that we don’t know what the future holds (duh), but a reasonably warm remainder of July and August would put a lot of spots on the west side and east side in the upper echelon.

It appears the constant battle between the Aleutian / Western GOA ridge and 4CH is going to be in full force over the next two weeks.  A very delicate balancing act indeed.  No question the spate of hot summers this century is due to the 4CH having more control than it had for much of the 20th century.

Looking at max temps it's been pretty normal this month.  That's what most people pay attention to, but obviously the monthly averages don't care where the positives come from.

I stand corrected.  I thought the 81 yesterday was locked, but there must have been a spike.

Bootleg fire is now 76,897 acres. Sounds like they can't get a good handle on it. 

I was able to see the very tops of the plume (looks like thunderheads) from my place over the hills. I'll let you know when it forms an anvil.

Absolutely unbelievable it was putting off a monstrous smoke plume yesterday. This is climate change in action. Most of these forests will likely not grow back.

Absolutely unbelievable it was putting off a monstrous smoke plume yesterday. This is climate change in action. Most of these forests will likely not grow back. 

I saw a pyrocumulonimbus one time in 2014 to my southwest. I forget the name of that one (end of July?) it had a beefy anvil on that one. Saw a few flashes out of it too. Interesting there was nothing of that sort anywhere close to me in the following summers after this.

The fire situation is just so bad right now. We are starting to dry out pretty quick here too. I am spending a few hours each day removing fuels from the property. A lot of the brush I am removing is still green, but in two weeks it will be dead and dried out.

My birthday is on August 4th, and I was born just two weeks before the B&B Complex Fire started which burned Santiam Pass. What was it like before the fire, if you remember? I never got to see it, and the big field of sticks is what I know of Santiam Pass. Up in the subalpine zone the forest will take decades to recover.

People here will have absolutely no idea what to do and the evacuation orders will be issued too late. Not looking forward to the eastern half of the valley getting wiped out.

He never said he was speaking for western WA though.    I understand his perspective.  It's a reality down there.

He said "we" in response to a post not about his area. It's a lovable tendency of his to speak in generalities that often don't apply to the whole region, as if they do.

A forum for the end of the world.
