Is the air coming directly from the SW and getting compressed by coming down the mountains and the extreme drought is making it even worse? Yes, it’s possible. This is an unprecedented heat event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 This morning, Seattle had a low temperature of 73°. That shattered the old record of 63° from 2015. It also set a new all-time record high minimum temperature. The previous record was 71°, which was set on July 29, 2009. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily. The ridge will be drifting north and east, so its influence over Portland will be a little less impactful. Statistically, Seattle’s 102 high yesterday would be the equivalent of a 107 high in Central Park. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 This morning, Portland recorded a low temperature of 73°. That broke the existing daily record high minimum temperature of 71°, which was set in 2015. It was also Portland's record-tying second consecutive 70° minimum temperature. That record was set during July 16-17, 1941 and tied on July 27-28, 1998 and July 28-29, 2009. This is the only occurrence of such a streak in June.

Gravity Wave Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 My parents have friends who live near Portland; they headed out to their cabin by the coast in the SW part of the state, it's in the mid-60s there right now. Meanwhile it's 98 degrees in Astoria right now, which is absolutely incredible to anyone who's familiar with that area.

This change will result in the discontinuation of all "Advisory" headlines within what is currently the NWS Watch, Warning and Advisory system. Most of the current Advisory headlines will be replaced with plain language headlines that clearly articulate the nature of the hazard. Current "Special Weather Statements" (SPS’) will also be discontinued in favor of plain language headlines. NWS is now collecting public comment on options for the plain language that will replace the Advisory and SPS headlines. The survey is available at the following link and will remain open through July 31, 2021: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/HazSimp21 A slide set highlighting public and partner feedback supporting this decision and providing case examples demonstrating how the messages will change is at this link: https://www.weather.gov/media/notification/haz_simp_slides.pdf A set of frequently asked questions with responses as it relates to the planned changes is provided here: https://www.weather.gov/media/notification/haz_simp_faq_sheet.pdf Additional details on the change may be found on the "Revamp Progress" tab of the project website. Detailed reports on the numerous social science- based engagements may be found in the "Reference Materials" tab: https://www.weather.gov/hazardsimplification/ Questions and comments can be directed to the NWS Hazard Simplification Team at: [email protected] National Service Change Notices are online at: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
