The new location is still in the backyard but is sheltered by surrounding trees so my winds are notably lighter and not representative of actual winds. So until further notice, ignore winds from my Rob's Obs station.. especially from a northerly or easterly direction. I'll have to look into getting better wind exposure in the upcoming weeks or months ahead.robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577519556216420480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-47754369391810272492011-06-27T09:29:58.709-05:002011-06-27T09:29:58.709-05:00addy..

The heat there is so intense.. routinely 50C or more during the summer.. punctuated by those lovely choking sandstorms. I don't think I could handle that for a summer.. but one or two days would be interesting to experience.robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577519556216420480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-59920811779925269522011-06-26T23:12:32.416-05:002011-06-26T23:12:32.416-05:00Rob, you're not missing much.

Just imagine a country-sized hairdryer on its highest setting, blowing on you all day and night long. Sometimes we would get a sea breeze dropping temperatures to 35 C in the afternoon (very close to the dewpoint!) but they would recover to 40 C in the evening, then slowly decrease again and reach a low of 30-32 C by sunrise. This was every day from late May to mid-September. We took showers only in the morning when 'cold' water temperatures were below 40 C. Never a cloud in sight all summer, much less rain.Addynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-45621244059907293482011-06-26T21:47:08.098-05:002011-06-26T21:47:08.098-05:00And then there's Childress TX.. 117F today (47...And then there's Childress TX.. 117F today (47C)!

Models have been showing some heat moving in for the beginning of July for a few runs now.. and CPC outlooks are finally showing some above normal temps edging into the northern plains for the first time in awhile. So I'm cautiously optimistic that we may be seeing 30C by early July. Hopefully, it's a trend to a stretch of above normal weather, instead of just a brief warmup.robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577519556216420480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-80976722805621774262011-06-23T20:13:51.108-05:002011-06-23T20:13:51.108-05:00Rob!!!
