AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Hawaiian Acres about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the Pacific south of Hawaii three days ago, about 760 miles back along its path. It rose from near the ground on the way. Near the ground the air came from the open Pacific; at 10,000 feet, from the Pacific south of Hawaii. Air off the water carries moisture, which is why it feels humid. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses and the GFS beyond them, nine paths at each of three heights.
