AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Coffman Cove about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the open Pacific three days ago, and over British Columbia a day ago, about 1,170 miles back along its path. It rose from near the ground on the way. It feels dry all the same. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses and the GFS beyond them, nine paths at each of three heights.
