Surprisingly warm out there tonight. High temp of the day in Sechelt was 18.5C at 5:00pm.

I'm sure enjoying these beautiful sunny days, and especially nice tonight that it is so warm. I've had ice on my water buckets in the mornings, except this morning.

As someone who came of age in New Mexico, even Santa Fe can do that!

I’ve been having the warm evenings here, too. Eventually, however, the temperature plunges. There was patchy frost in my neighborhood yet again this morning.

So amazing outside. Absolutely love this weather. Hit nearly 25 degrees yesterday, and is on par to reach that today as well. Amazing for mid April that's for sure.

Very good point. Calgary's weather is quite Similkameen similar. Play on words there for my buttees. :wave:
