July 2021 PNW Weather Discussion

lol I’m done with this argument over wether it’s been warm or not. The stats are there people can choose to believe them or not. No point in trying to convince anyone of anything in this situation. We will see where we are by late July…that’ll be a time where we can verify this cooler weather pattern coming up and see how much it affects the averages. My guess is not much but we will see!

It has been a very warm summer to this point. July has been cooler than June (anomaly) and will be trending cooler. Too soon to say where we end up historically.

That is all.

I've had a couple of moderately warm Augusts but overall I think it's been the cooler of the main summer months this last decade. The trend used to be August bakes, and July was a taste of things to come before I came to this area.

1. No, I really haven't been more focused on SEA. You'll find more posts about OLM. Plenty of other people have stations they pick "randomly" to illustrate something, it's silly to act like it's just me. Justin "randomly" picked SLE earlier.

2. Depends on where you're looking. And keeping in mind that those summers racked up a ton of hot days the rest of July, while there's nothing indicating the return of widespread heat yet this month.

I honestly don't care that much how I come off to you, or what names you call me. My goal is not to be endearing to someone who doesn't even know me. And I just don't take a lot of this as seriously as you apparently do.

Maybe you should care less about some of this stuff? 

Ah, yes. You, the guy with 26,000 posts about a region he doesn't even live in, doesn't take it seriously at all. Very good point. 

Even stranger is that people who live here care about stuff.

It's weather, in an area I'm very familiar with and attached to. I like weather and discussing it with other people who do.

Aug 2014 was +1.5 and Aug 2015 even cooler at only +0.8, while both summers had an all-time hottest month.

July 2014 had 23 days over 90, and then only 3 days over 90 in August.

Our sunburnt trees are rapidly shedding their dead needles now and the visible damage is fading.

Hopefully a good sign for the rest of the trees and vegetation. Still might not know the full effects for awhile but it’s an encouraging sign.

Visibly, yes, but those damaged leaves are not coming back instantly. The trees must now cope with less ability to photosynthesize, which will stunt their growth for the rest of the season, as will the abnormally dry conditions. Some trees, already under stress, can be expected to succumb when (absent the extreme heat wave) they would have survived.

Maybe so... but in cutting wood around here I have noticed many different widths of trees rings and not every year is a fast growth year.   After cutting down a tree... I can actually count back and cross reference the width of each ring with wet or dry summers and it matches.

I strongly believe that the early wet June has helped aid in the recovery of these burnt trees. However, as I pointed out before and I’m no expert but the heatwave put many of our trees under stress and they’ve most likely been working hard to draw up reserves from underground. As we continue to remain dry and even though they’re trying hard to recover we truly don’t know the true extent. If you notice, many of our trees here, not including the evergreens have a yellow/orange tint to them after the heatwave and the long term effect will be more noticeable as we continue to be dry.

Spokane has picked up 1.1 inches of precipitation since March 1st. Spokane Valley has picked up 1.37 inches over the same period of time. 🌵

1.01" at KLMT since 3/1. With a proper thunder year I'd have no problem tripling that in 6 weeks.
