Notably, 2021 is also responsible for breaking YVR's run of not reaching 30.0C. The last time that happened was also (you guessed it) 2013.

Would you consider taking each model type and going in depth as to what it is and how to read it? I would find that invaluable.
I would have to see what I can do.

And yes, its still snowing.
:shock:
Nanaimo is so often the hammer zone when the outflow is here :arrow: :arrow:

Looks like 850s are just about -15 right now. They were between -15 and -16 in the preceding several hours.
