Palmy Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 (edited) A hurricane in California even in an el nino year with temps in the upper 70's or low 80's would be unlikely. Thankfully due to the upper prevailing winds, hurricanes that actually make it that far north head north west away from land and into colder water or go east far south of California. One might think that a tropical depression or storm would be beneficial to dry conditions. Just imagine if a tropical storm dumped 5 inches throughout most of southern California. The soil would in no way be prepared to absorb the rain which would result in floods. The mountains hugging the coast east of LA and SD would also create problems. The mountains would act as a sponge and squeeze out even more water. That water would head for the coast and the high population areas. It would also be interesting if a hurricane made it up the gulf of California. The water temps out there are well into the 80's even at the far north regions. If a Hurricane's eye continued over water in the gulf heading north and brought torrential rains to the deserts, it would result in serious floods.

Palmy Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) Was in Seattle Wednesday and Thursday and stuck my foot in the water on East side of Seattle island, not sure what its called, and had a direct view of Bellevue and was surprised. At the end of Madison ST? (if you know the area) The temp outside was around 85F with 45% humidity. The water temperature must have been around 70F. Probably because it was on the east side protected from freezing cold pacific. Does anybody have any data on water temps in and around Seattle area? Also does anybody know the temps in the Bay area, the actual bay? Thanks.
