AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Cantu Addition about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the Gulf Coast three days ago, about 980 miles back along its path. Near the ground the air came from the Appalachians; at 10,000 feet, from a point about 480 miles to the northeast. 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.
