And you’ve got some troughier weather coming up the second half of this month too, most likely. Really does look like a different low frequency state this summer vs recent years, intraseasonal excursions notwithstanding.
It is still pretty green here for going into 4th of July. Nothing unusual, but definitely a noticeable departure from some recent years. Even the valley is looking pretty NORMAL for this time of year.
Why can’t they share that with the rest of us?
This is our driest 5/25 -7/2 in recorded history. Didn’t have a single thunderstorm in June. Have to go back to the 1930s to find anything remotely close.
Hopefully this episode of western ridging will allow for some real convection. The next 10 days are so crucial.
