AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Oshawa about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the central Plains three days ago, and over the southern Plains a day ago, about 1,020 miles back along its path. The nine paths traced from around the city fan out, so treat that as a best guess. Near the ground the air came from the Mississippi Valley; at 10,000 feet, from Texas. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses, nine paths at each of three heights.
