AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Old Harbor about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the Bering Sea three days ago, about 1,110 miles back along its path. It came down from about 14,300 feet up, warming and drying as it sank. Near the ground the air came from the Bering Sea; at 10,000 feet, from a point about 240 miles to the northwest. 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.
