60-100mm for the inner south coast seems pretty generous. Not sure what models they base this off of. The ~60mm shown for Victoria likely has high bust potential

Re: April 2019 Forecasts and Discussions
Definitely seems high. Reality looks closer to 50 mm for most of the south coast; less in Victoria, but a bit more near the mountains.

Re: April 2019 Forecasts and Discussions
The rainfall discrepancy between Shawnigan and Abbotsford YXX really becomes noticeable as we move towards the dry season. Shawnigan is actually slightly wetter in average during December and January. But by April we see 40% less and by May it’s 50%.

Re: April 2019 Forecasts and Discussions
Makes sense. The rainshadow is usually non-existent during the warm season. That's what keeps Abbotsford so "dry" in the winter.

0n a related note, further along, El Nino is forecast to peak in June/July and return to neutral by September. As of yet, the atmosphere has not responded and no reinforcement has taken place. twice the atmosphere has spurned the ocean's advances. Let the be an end to it for a few seasons.
