AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Agassiz about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the southern Rockies three days ago, and over the southern Plains a day ago, about 1,140 miles back along its path. Most of the nine paths traced from around the city agree. It came down from about 10,200 feet up, warming and drying as it sank. Near the ground the air came from the Mississippi Valley; at 10,000 feet, from the central Plains. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses, nine paths at each of three heights.
