AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Charlestown about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the Gulf Coast three days ago, and over Texas a day ago, about 1,240 miles back along its path. Near the ground the air came from Texas; at 10,000 feet, from the Gulf Coast. Air off the water carries moisture, which is why it feels humid. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses, nine paths at each of three heights.
