There's a good chance this day will make the top 10.

Storm total now up to 44.1mm in east Coquitlam. 41.3mm since midnight.

Back-to-back Augusts with top tier summer rainstorms is impressive!

Daily is a good bet. Up to a little over 71 mm for the month right now. A record since I moved here in November 2021 but longer-term records are probably in the 100+ mm range. Just a feeling. Maybe Typer can let us know what the August record is for the Coquitlam gauge he reports.

Throw in that brutal wind storm from several years ago and August is sometimes more like Augtober in the last decade...wow

Looking forward to our first 3 day stretch of sun and 20c++ 8-)
