75/36 hi/lo temps today, delightful.

Yeah... our only hope is a meandering pattern with the secondary troughing remaining mostly to the north and west like the GFS has been showing. FWIW.. that seems like its a very common outcome in early July.

Could be...but it did lead the way with the trough that is 4-5 days out now. The plain old Euro is also pretty pretty troughy heading into July, as is the CMC.

You don't think PDX has seen increased UHI?

86/51 today. We will see if the 0z runs bless with bountiful precip tonight or not.
