AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Adams about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the western Atlantic three days ago, and over New England a day ago, about 1,430 miles back along its path. Near the ground the air came from a point about 630 miles to the northeast; at 10,000 feet, from the Appalachians. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses and the GFS beyond them, nine paths at each of three heights.
