usually air quality is good there as airflow is from the Pacific, right now from the east. You can see when the airflow switched from oceanic air to continental from the sudden dewpoint drop to something more normal from the interior west.



very dry air over southern California helping fuel the fires

Danbury reported snow as well. Nothing stuck here of course. Wayy too light.

Here's the loop. some instability helped it for us.

Fires are a part if life when a area does not get normal rains after near 10 years thanks to a warming planet with changing weather.

Fires have always happened in CA, even without global warming. That’s what happens when you live in a semi-arid or arid climate.

They have been worse all over the west the last few years.

Dews are down a little today but race back up once the winds go back to the southeast. Did some more metal work on the scope before the back room gets hot.
