July was hot. sunny and very dry
over most of Oregon, and has set the
stage for what could be one of the
state's driest years on record
According to Kelly Redmond, the
state climatologist at Oregon State
University, at this point "it is quite
likely' that enough rain will fall in
the next five months to bring the
year-end total up to the long term
annual average in Western Oregon
"When you examine the past US
year record in Portland, a dry
first half year is equally Ukely to be
followed by a dry or wet second
half. Redmond said "In much of
western Oregon, the most probable
outcome is that IMS will end up
among the driest 10 prrcenl of the
calendar years on record "
A ccord in g to R edm ond, last
month was unusually hot in many
areas around the state, peaking at
106 degrees in Medford and Grants
Pass In the central and southern
W illa m e tte V a lle y , it was the
warmest July in 27 years, with the
d aytim e m axim u m
about 4 1
degrees above average, and in
Corvallis the month's highest since
1917 It was (he warmest summer
month at Union and Moro since at
least 1931. and in Medford It tied
with 1938 for the hottest July on
record

The
the first week of June almost no
rain fell until the end of the month in
moat of western Oregon, including
more than a V lday rainless period in
Pendleton. Klsmath Falls. Medford.
Kugrne. Corvallis and Portland
The unusual amounts of solar
radiation, heat and low relative
humidity also caused pan evapora
tion values among the highest on
record at many locations Portland
received over 473 hours of bright
sunshine and the 9 8 inches of
evaporated water at Corvallis was
the third highest since 19a
That pattern was broken how
ever, by some heavy rains at the end
of the month that actually pushed
Kugrne and Rose burg to five times
their long term average rainfall for
July Rut the late rains were only a
small start in recharging (he deple
ted soil moisture that has worried
farmers. Redmond said
For the year as a whole. 1905 is
still off to the driest start at Astoria
in 32 years, at Seaside in 55 years, at
Santiam Pass in 21 years, and in
downtown Portland in 115 years
