Can you point us to a source of this kind of information?<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Eric S.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-59578814262799904212010-08-27T20:40:36.974-07:002010-08-27T20:40:36.974-07:00I forget the exact date, but it was my only year a...I forget the exact date, but it was my only year at CWU, probably the most bizarre meteorologicial event i will ever witness.<br /><br />Anyway, it was blazing hot in the afternoon. Strong convection overnight, and Hanford jumped 25 degrees in one hour to 100+ degrees at 1am. In Ellensburg we jumped 20 degrees to the upper 90's in 15 minutes. Little research I did for it, all I found was its called a "heat burst."<br /><br />So it is possible, but I saw multiple observations backing mine up. Just one site, probably just an error.smokejumperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05358322512081660205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-33990782218658720412010-08-27T19:45:48.722-07:002010-08-27T19:45:48.722-07:00Glad I skipped work on Wednesday and went sailing!...Glad I skipped work on Wednesday and went sailing! The wind wasn't super good on Lake Washington, but I got about 4 knots out of the boat, better than sitting still flopping. Hope I get another chance to sail in September.
