AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Seven Mile Creek about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the open Pacific three days ago, and over the northern Plains a day ago, about 3,010 miles back along its path. It came down from about 12,400 feet up, warming and drying as it sank. Near the ground the air came from British Columbia; at 10,000 feet, from the open Pacific. It feels dry all the same. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses and the GFS beyond them, nine paths at each of three heights.
