2 or 3 more rounds of T-storms in the interior and the torch could be on. Dodging bullets the last cupla weeks imo with all the instability and that week long troffing and T-storms. Already getting parched in the forests in the Similkameeeens and still in May :shock:
Looking forward to our first 3 day stretch of sun and 20c++ 8-)

3rd warmest and 6th driest in Vancouver YVR.

The summer of 1993 was a cold one, especially July!

Good example of just how dry the soil is in the Fraser valley. Took these shots of a field being tilled in Abbs near my work down near Sumas very dry and dusty. :x
