My podcast at this time talks about two issues: the continuation of “limitless summer season” and why we’re in the midst of fog season.
A giant ridge of excessive strain has dominated the japanese Pacific seemingly endlessly. The outcome has been hotter and drier than regular circumstances over the Northwest.
A number of days in the past, climate forecast fashions predicted {that a} robust trough of low strain would sneak across the japanese Pacific ridge, giving us some rain.
Properly, the forecasts have modified, with that trough weakening and heading east of us.
In consequence, there will likely be no rain over the Northwest and solely a modest cool-down on Monday/Tuesday.
However then it occurs once more. The upper-level ridge amplifies drastically over the japanese Pacific, leading to ANOTHER warm-up over the Pacific Northwest (see upper-level map for late Tuesday under). Wow.
My podcast discusses the forecast in additional element.
After which there’s fog, which visited our area a number of days this week.
We’re in Northwest fog season and my podcast tells you why. And I additionally clarify how wildfire smoke can improve the fog.
