AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Shageluk about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the Bering Sea three days ago, about 1,190 miles back along its path. Most of the nine paths traced from around the city agree. Near the ground the air came from interior Alaska; at 10,000 feet, from a point about 8,930 miles to the east. 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.
