Tx of 20.1C in White Rock but, once again, this station is too warm considering its location (overexposed).

As much as I like the spring sunshine and dislike our typical showery springs, Vancouver Island needs the rain.

Ya that seems a little warm, I only hit 15.2 and we're usually not too far off from White Rocks readings

YXX only hit 18C, which seemed a little low to me. Could be right, though.

At least we know that station isn't overexposed, so when they do set a record it's probably legit.

Wow. Hopefully we get the big rains out of the way next week then. Would much rather that than intermittent showers for two months straight.
