Yeah. Really glad to be off the next couple of days. The worst of it should be over by Wednesday. Can't stress enough how thankful I am to have A/C.

I don't usually post imagery of high pressure systems because they're typically less visual than storms... but this über #ridge aloft has been the product of an epic case of "anticyclonic Rossby wave breaking" and is responsible for the historic heat

It's summer. Usually they are glad they don't live here with our humid heat. I'm sure theirs is a dry heat. Glad I don't live there.

Dew points have been in the 60s, which isn't SE summer but I wouldn't call it dry.

I would punch a fragile old woman knitting a sweater in a park and all the backlash that comes with it...to get dew points in the 60's during the summer.

Just think, a couple weeks ago we were seeing satellite imagery of an atmospheric river training over the PNW. Weather be crazy sometimes.

It's been amazing to see the no clouds over the Cascades.

Most of the folks in Portland and Seattle are going somewhere hot anyway. Might as well get used to it now!

I'm heading from Bozeman over to the Oregon coast for a week on Wednesday. It's been plenty hot here, 90-100 multiple times in the last 2 weeks. Sitting at 84 right now.

That map doesn't make it look like the coast itself is too hot, but we're flying into Portland, so out of the frying pan...

It's amazing to see them with most of the snow gone.

It isn't as hot. That's the one silver lining, I guess.

Marine layer keeps the coast mostly in check on temps. It just doesnt go inland very far right now.
