AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Winchester about 5,000 feet above the ground was over a point about 410 miles to the south three days ago, about 690 miles back along its path. Near the ground the air came from the Great Lakes; at 10,000 feet, from the central 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.
