AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Turtle Lake about 5,000 feet above the ground was over Texas three days ago, and over the southern Plains a day ago, about 1,020 miles back along its path. Near the ground the air came from the Great Lakes; at 10,000 feet, from the northern Plains. It has stayed over land, which is why it feels dry. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses, nine paths at each of three heights.
