AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Helena about 5,000 feet above the ground was over British Columbia three days ago, and over the Great Lakes a day ago, about 2,020 miles back along its path. It came down from about 15,100 feet up, warming and drying as it sank. Near the ground the air came from a point about 450 miles to the southwest; at 10,000 feet, from the Pacific Northwest. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses, nine paths at each of three heights.
