I’m pretty sure I said a couple weeks ago after the heatwave that this summer would blow past 2015 not in total seriousness. It has been a pretty warm summer though. Would take a lot of consistent heat to beat 2015. Top 5 seems pretty reasonable to me since we’re likely bound for a couple more stretches of warm weather. I could see some places in Oregon and eastern Washington surpassing 2015 just with the heat in the first half of the summer giving them such a head start. 1 Quote Tacoma WA elevation 300’ Monthly rainfall-3.56” Warm season rainfall-11.14” Max temp-88 +80 highs-2 +85 highs-2 +90 highs-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My new office is right by the airport, had to go in for a few hours today and its amazing the difference in the winds there vs. my house. I know its somewhat obvious given the terrain there vs. my house, but still, they are a little less than 5 miles apart as the crow flies. That said, it did get pretty breezy here last night! Looks like I pulled off a 72/55 here at the house, with the winds picking back up this evening. In fact I went out to turn off the sprinkler and froze my a** off between the 64 degree temp and the wind.

Meatyorologist Posted July 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2021 Fantasy 06z has a beautiful trough swinging through WA. Snowfall in the northern cascades and thickness values well below 552. Not nearly enough of an order of magnitude to offset this summer's accumulated heat, but it's a good start to an attempt? Maybe, IDK.......

The Willamette Valley, Umpqua Basin, Rogue Basin, and everywhere east of the Cascades are torching to historic levels. Yesterday SLE had marine clouds until around 11am and still hit 81. Today was supposed to be the big marine push today and I was shocked to wake up to severe clear. They should easily top 80 again. Remember July 2015 had 7 sub 80 highs at SLE. After today it is mid-upper 80s the rest of the month. The sustained warmth has just been absolutely incredible. Did pull off a -2 departure yesterday at least. Even if we don't beat July 2015, it won't take much in August to beat that summer given where June ended up. 2 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!
