It is going to cause major issues. Of course it is, and the 18z GFS translates that airmass east (though it flattens out the flow a little and it won’t be as extreme). Still, I see a 94 on that run.

Ahoff Posted June 24, 2021 Author Share Posted June 24, 2021 Edit, Euro backed off on big heat next week at 12z run. Couple days near 90 then low 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rd9108 Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 90s don't interest me one bit. It was mid 70s and sun here at the beach and it was perfect. 90s and high humidity is just oppressive. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahoff Posted June 24, 2021 Author Share Posted June 24, 2021 Today was a perfect summer day. If it could be low 80s, sunny and low dew points everyday from June through August I'd be happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KPITSnow Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Apparently the euro run gives us a bunch of days in the 60's to start out July.....I'd lock that in now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahoff Posted June 26, 2021 Author Share Posted June 26, 2021 Pathetic if that would turn out true. If it’s GFS lots of room for improvement.

That’s the key, I would assume there will be some compromise between models like there always is and we get into the 70s most if not all days. That said, a dry and warm 4th of July weekend seems less likely than it once did. But models have struggled to get a grasp on pattern evolution lately.

It definitely looks like the weather a week out is really not known. Just the last few weeks when I check the weather app the weather in the extended forecast always seems to change pretty drastically. This weekend for example, last week it looked like today would be rainy and 75-ish. Obviously much different. As long as it isn’t cold and rainy I’ll be happy. It can be 75 and sunny for the holiday.

We’re definitely in one of those areas on the fringes of different air masses in this pattern, so there’s still a wide range of possibilities for how this all plays out. The 12z GFS takes out the weekend rain so it’s definitely a little warmer but still a bit below average and relatively comfortable dew points, gives us a 4th of July weekend where everybody wins. (Though the entire pattern beyond midweek looks pretty trough-y.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahoff Posted June 27, 2021 Author Share Posted June 27, 2021 Fell short of forecasted highs today. Only 84, despite sunshine all day. Doesn't bode well for 90 the next few days, but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, we have a ridge of our own in our neck of the woods and a few shots at that 90 degree day you’ve been craving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend whole lives in the flat lands to the East of Seattle but before the mountains....she sent me a pic of her temp yesterday afternoon showing 104 just to let me see how real this was for them. Way out of any concrete jungle influences. She seems likely to break 110 for 2-3 straight days and I bet we see a 120 East of the mountains.

Meanwhile, we have a ridge of our own in our neck of the woods and a few shots at that 90 degree day you’ve been craving. My take on that, is eventually we will see a heat wave similar to theirs. It may be a while, but the fact that they will break all time records by that much is insane to even think. I believe they are in a pretty decent drought, which helps fuel the heat, but I'd say we aren't immune to something similar at some point (may be many years). I'd say them shooting to 115 would be like us jumping to 106 or 107. The crazy thing is Portland and the NW may not see anything this extreme for decades and decades again. Just to be clear. I like heat, and do want to see us hit 100 soon, to break the drought there, but spiking that far above 100 would be too extreme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we’re 5 degrees ahead of yesterday at this hour and we topped out at 84 yesterday, so we could top out at your favorite number today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
