Light blue represents average Vancouver temps during Jan, while dark blue is Feb. Light grey represents average Abbotsford temps during Jan, while dark gray is for Feb.

As you can see, January has warmed quite significantly over the past 60 years, while Feb has only warmed modestly.

Thanks for sharing. Another thing (I don't know if the blog mentions it, but Abbotsford used to average a whole degree colder than Vancouver in January, but now they only average 0.5C colder. Shallower arctic air masses = weaker outflow and more down-sloping warmth, meaning less difference between coastal and inland temperatures.

That is quite the read , he says he has taught at SFU and UBC, seems like he's got expertise in many areas and has several things on the go . He's probably way too busy for this site. :lol:

Why is the Pitt Meadows and Wrinkle Rock stations over exposed just location wise? Vancouver (where is this station?) might be Coal harbour downtown

Fortunately it doesn't happen very often , I don't have any wild slices. Try to keep it straight by not trying to kill the ball

Big courses only for me ,I usually shoot in the 90s , unless it's a difficult course then fooogetaboutit , I don't like the Falls in Chilliwack, greens very hard to read. Isn't it about time you graduated to a course?
