Yakutsk is a big city, and the met office there produces forecasts for all of Yakutia. The obs there are as good as anywhere in that part of the world. I had forgotten that dew points got that high last summer. Hourly obs from Yakutsk are available at:<br /><br />http://www.aviationweather.gov/adds/metars/<br /><br />the ID is UUEE<br /><br />RickRickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03946704894714514716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572286363399496963.post-67127452267418682802011-07-14T18:09:56.848-08:002011-07-14T18:09:56.848-08:00http://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/UEEE/2...http://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/UEEE/2010/7/15/MonthlyHistory.html<br /><br />Take a look between 7/18-7/23, 7/25, 7/29-30. All of those days recorded mean dewpoints in the low-mid 60s with max dewpoints in the upper 60s. It was also hot during those days giving Siberia an almost tropical feel. The average dewpoint that month was 56 degrees which is probably much warmer than Fairbanks. Although I will admit that July 2010 was an anomalously warm month.<br /><br />I'm not sure if this station is as reliable as your typical NWS station, but it's probably the best we have for details in obscure places like Siberia.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572286363399496963.post-41225646397665969922011-07-14T16:34:12.097-08:002011-07-14T16:34:12.097-08:00Yakutsk, Siberia has had dewpoints that high last ...Yakutsk, Siberia has had dewpoints that high last summer around this time.

I've been keeping track of the weather i...Hey!! I've been keeping track of the weather in Siberia too!! They might even break 100 in a couple of days. I find the climate of Siberia to simply be fascinating with super cold -40 and -50 weather in January and sometimes 80s and 90s with humidity in the summer. Of course this most recent heat is dry heat but maybe more humid dewpoints of high 60s will be coming within several days!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
