Low on 8/20/23 in Juneau was 48. Record is 39. Average low is 48.7.
Why lie?
I'm in Auke Bay, Got it directly from the NWS as we are an observation station..
Youre ignorance doesn't equal my "lying".

I don’t have a political position on this shite. Just observations. I have never ever seen or felt weeks of heat like we have seen over the last month. I am dreading high school football jamboree Friday evening. I know the boys want to play, but not sure it is a good idea for anyone.

Let them play, but my arse won’t be in the stands for any high school football until October. LOL

I was thinking of all the fans in college football stadiums all over the south during the first few weeks of college football

I just want to understand this ridge that isn’t allowing any thunderstorms and is allowing low humidity which I assume is why temps can get as high as they’ve gotten.
What is this ridge? Why is it here? How unusual is it? What is going on?

High pressure aloft trapping hot air below, pushes the air down compressing and heating it. Its like a windless chinook, air heats faster when its falling than it does when its rising.
We had one in the fall of 2018, October was the warmest on Record.

Yea. It wasn’t anywhere close to a record low there when you posted that. But agenda posting is to be expected from you.
Straight from NWS the low for 8/20 was 51 in Auke Bay. NWS normal low for 8/20 is 50.4. So when you posted that you were near record lows, you were actually warmer than average.
Again, what motivated you to lie about that?

What is this ridge?
An area of hot air with clockwise flow around it. Brings high pressure at the surface with it and sinking air. Storms need that humid air to rise. The high pressure doesn't allow it.

Why is it here?
How complicated do you want to get?
Basically there's been warm air advecting (moving laterally) into the middle of the country. In addition, Hurricane Hillary has donated it's vorticity upstream and it's heat into the ridge. This is part of why it is so long lasting.
Eventually, a shortwave riding around the ridge will come down and start to erode it on the east side.

How unusual is it?
Death ridge (refers to position and killing severe weather) in the summer will happen a couple of times. This one is unusually "strong" for the location, but these ridges aren't unusual.

It's gonna be hot AF till like Labor Day weekend.

It absolutely was.
Someone educate this clown on microclimates, please. With pictures if possible. I don't know how to explain orographic and marine influences to a 4th grader without crayon pictures to help the guy..

I was out at Peter Sinks two summers ago.
The hike was in 80 degree weather. It was 38 at the bottom.

NWS here is by the Mendenhall Glacier, its a good 10 degrees cooler in high pressure systems than it is on the water.
Its routinely below zero there in winter, yet has never been below zero here at work, which is within 100' of the same elevation.
Its not uncommon to have a 20-25 degree difference in temperatures in winter between downtown and the valley when we have a strong offshore flow. Theres also a 100% difference in precipitation in various places due to the mountainous terrain too..

I took it straight off the NWS website. The Auke Bay station read a low of 51. The average low for the Auke Bay station was 50.4.
You're the one who cited NWS.
