  1. Yep, same here In way,way northern california, my city gets its last 90° day by 1st week of November. Then our cold season starts with snow sometimes the next week. And I'm in in the valley. It's that storm door from GOA.

  2. I wonder how the mixing of fresh water and salt water by way of the Beaufort Gyre affects the total net ice gain for each season. Very fasinating research that we have yet to fully realize. But we are getting closer finding that out.

  3. The micro climates that we get in california from the fog is almost similar in the sacramento valley toward higher elevations of the sierra- cascade region. It would be 110°F in Redding but go up to 5500ft in elevation, its a perfect 80°F degrees. A diference of 40 miles. Comes in handy to be the heat.

  4. ​ @ForageGardener rainshadowing is a major weather factor in micro climates. The Andes is a huge mountain range. I live near the Sierra nevada in the US. Oregraphic lift and orientation is what maximizes the available moisture feed/jet stream. Yet I live in the hottest city on earth at my latitude. Quite fascinating.

  5. ​@annoyed707 yeah cannot go without mentioning the major rainshadow effect. But prevailing winds do dictate wet and dry phrases.

  6. Also, it was a strategic advantage thru and thru. Nice mention.

  7. ​ @smc1942 same here. Made for a good night's rest.

  8. We have these same extremes in California. Difference being California's not on the equator.

  9. ​ @josephkramer932 Pythons captured by Novices must be humanely killed immediately at the site of capture. Novice participants may not transport live pythons at any time.

  10. You mean the current parallels the continent and the continent parallels the upper winds.

  11. Just using this year as an example, california has had transitory highs from the pacific while our major heatwave/heat dome has come from the desert southwest. So I really think it's the strength of the sw high versus the strength of the nw trough of low pressures coming from Alaska. Yet during the drought in california, our major heatwaves came partly from pacific high pressure parked over the Intermountain west. Thus allowing the sw high to move south of the border more often. But its just a recent observation.
