K index of 37 centred around Abbotsford Saturday evening. Indicates lots of convection. Maybe I'll actually see a decent thunderstorm. :silent: :wave:

I thought Mr. Gooseman was working on securing a station there. I'm sure a local resident has a backyard thermometer hanging on there porch. Perhaps call the local gas station l'm sure they'll say it's hot. Yea it's amazing there's no coverage there even a local volunteer like Chilliwack has. I would but the wife wouldn't appreciate moving to Spence's Bridge. :wave: :D

It's a project I have, in collaboration with Glace, among others. First step (the most difficult) is to find a good location. Then, a crowdfunding campaign to finance it. ;)

Min of 17.0˚C this morning, warmest so far for this heat wave.
It's called clown range for a reason.

What local gas station? There are none in Spences Bridge :lol: There are bighorn sheep though and I saw 6 or 7 last week right beside the highway!
Why not try cycling to work, grocery store, anywhere!
