AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Fort Myers Beach about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the eastern Gulf of Mexico three days ago, about 480 miles back along its path. The nine paths traced from around the city fan out, so treat that as a best guess. Near the ground the air came from the eastern Gulf of Mexico; at 10,000 feet, from the central Gulf of Mexico. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses, nine paths at each of three heights.
