Another great post from cliff at least imo
Let's not dive into the human caused climate change debate here please. I've already been asked by one of the mods, and have respectfully agreed to refrain from discussing such controversial and divisive issues.

Whoa big words Jr. :clap: :clap:
Of course it could easily be 18c and bommy during this strong EN, but instead March starts out troffy and chilly! :shock: :shock: Bring on some 18c sunny days

Has anyone watched the Perseid Meteor shower? I haven't yet but when I thought of it, it was overcast. Might try tonight, it's clear here.

We’re going to check it out in a bit. I remember seeing a really good show one year when we were driving up to the Cariboo late at night. Stopped at a rest area outside of Cache creek, where it is really dark.

Did you see any? It's usually dark here except for the almost full moon. Haven't seen any yet...but then I got stuck inside doing dishes, etc. Maybe tomorrow night.

15 minutes and not a single one. Moon is really bright and it’s reflecting off a few a high cirrus clouds. My wife saw 1 earlier. Not too exciting. Might be better after the moon goes down later overnight

Seeing a few shots of 1985-86, 1992-93 and 1995-96 as possible analogues being thrown around on the other forum in the past few weeks

It was 2010 when my wife and I drove to somewhere on Chilliwack Lake Rd to watch the Perseids. Clear + newish moon = 37 in about an hour.

Not too bad for the PNW/SW BC so far this year. No huge torch, but some spots slightly above normal.

The progression seems similar to 2016. All models were predicting an El Nino and backed off later in the summer.
