Omegaraptor Posted July 11, 2021 Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 Back on the westside! Currently at the Santiam River rest area eating. Gotta say, the Cascades are an awesome mountain range regardless of which side of them you’re on. Driving from Sunriver to Bend it feels weird going 70 until you reach the Bend city limit and then it slows down to 45. Feels like you’re crawling. lol 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The temp anomaly map tim posted pretty much says it all. One 10 day stretch of below average temps in early June doesn’t mean much compared to how warm it’s been otherwise. It wasn’t even as below normal down there as it was around seattle.

Salem hit 97 on June 12th (Supposedly normal), and 100 on August 27th. Seems like a major early and late heatwave. Overall though it was warm, it seemed cool to many considering our 2013-present climate regime. Despite being a fairly warm summer by long term historical standards, Salem only had 10 90+ highs, despite running significant + departures in May, June, and August. July was slightly above normal, September slightly below. By comparison this was the 17th 90+ max at SLE so far this summer. 1 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!

Notice the yellow ranges from 0 to +1. Looks like half of the PNW avoided a statistically "warm" summer by most standards, plus 10% or so in the green. Was a nice bonus too that we had no real heatwaves at all and very little of a fire season.

Just to add on to this - It's been a full decade at this point since we've had an actual cool summer, and even that was nothing special by pre 21st century standards (especially if you include the blowtorch September). Even an average summer by 20th century standards would feel pretty remarkable at this point. Another stat that's amazing to me is that of the last 17 (soon to be 18) July/Augusts at PDX, only July 2016 had an average high below 80. The 1971-2000 average highs were 79.3 for July and 79.7 for August. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
