I'm probably one of the closest of your viewers to Hudson bay. Its a bit over 1000 Km NNW from here in bird flight.
Hot and humid here today, saw some thunder clouds N.
Anyhow, just wanted to thank you 👍

Thank you, appreciate the comments!

Thank you Tim. A very good presentation once again! Here in Sacramento temps got up to 104* today with last nights temps remaining in the mid 80s for most of the night. Nice to see a break from all of the Supercells and Tornadoes in the mid western region. Take care.

Tim! Cool! The 500 MB chart looks like the ones I learned on in Aerography school and then saw when I did week-end warrior Reserve duty at NAS Dallas. Much cleaner and informative, better dileneating the highs and lows to give a better sense of expected phenomena! Thanks

Thanks for the comments! I do like the classic 500 mb Daily Weather Map look and plan to use a few of those charts in my upcoming books.

Thanks Tim, when yo mentioned Hovmöller diagrams, I paused and did a quick refresh. Keep mixing it up, love it!
