March 2024 Forecasts and Discussions

[Canada Goose]

I remember once long ago in Maple Ridge the temps peaked at almost 30c in March

No no no... The March provincial record is around 26°C.

20°C mid-March is not unprecedented at all. Though, the record of the 2nd third of March may fall in YVR.

I don't think I said unprecedented, just crazy.

Not me…the best ones seem to be weak La Nina’s. this could mean a super progressive pattern and a crap ton of rain, although great for skiing.

Typer, it looks like the rain gauge of Burke Mountain has some problems, don't you think? https://www.flowworks.com/network/rainf ... &year=2024

Interesting article on how the Tonga volcano has affected the recent weather by altering the jet stream. Unfortunately he doesn't go into that very much, it's at the end of the article: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/quirks/record- ... -1.7096003

No no no... The March provincial record is around 26°C.

..you mean provincial record at weather stations..yes i agree with you, as i'm sure you have the stats. Which we have already discussed are somewhat inaccurate possibly? (On home thermometer) i remember at least 26 or 27c..truly felt like a summer day. Possibly 1983?

Still not something you want so early in the season

But hey. It's a warming climate it's best just to expect smoke every summer

[Weather101]

Nothing to worry about but kinda cool

Yeah, the data for yesterday certainly looks completely inaccurate.
