From Howard Sheckter at MammothWeather.com
In a few days it will be August. For the first of August, the Climo for the Eastern Sierra spells the beginning of the weekly decline in temperatures. Unlike the last two weeks of July when average highs reach up near 80, the average highs in Mammoth are expected in the mid to upper 70s. Hence the days becomes shorter and the nights longer. By the end of the month of August, upper 30s in Mammoth are common in the early morning and daytime highs in the low to mid 70s….then low 70s by Labor Day. and by Mid September upper 60s. Remember, at elevations above 8000 feet, the Climate in the central and northern Sierra is akin to some areas of Canada.
The Dweebs are beginning to think about what the winter of 2013/14. What will it be like? Based upon the reverse of the QBO and how hot this Summer has been so far, the Dweebs believe that the upcoming winter will not be “Anything like the last two”. There are other important changes both hemispherically and SST wise that will be discussed later this Summer and into the Fall. It all looks very promising!!!!!! :-)
Wax-up up?
