Looks like May was the 3rd warmest in the past 5 years at Shawnigan Lake but also the 3rd warmest in the past 30 years. I didn’t have time to look further back. Spring isn’t what I remember when I was growing up, at least for most of this decade

EC suggest hot and dry too. I think some of the past dry Spring's have not necessarily translated into dry summers. Like 2015. I remember a dry May, June and early July in 2015 but also a big deluge around July 20 and lots of rain in late August. Maybe that's his reasoning.
