AIR MAIL
Where today’s air came from
The air arriving over Somers about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the Atlantic off the Carolinas three days ago, and over the western Atlantic a day ago, about 1,280 miles back along its path. It rose from near the ground on the way. Near the ground the air came from the Maritimes; at 10,000 feet, from the western Atlantic. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses and the GFS beyond them, nine paths at each of three heights.
