Even though the surface air quality is better today, the sunlight is dimmer due to thicker smoke aloft.

Looking towards the mountains, it seems the smoke is thicker above about the 500 m level.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Almost 39°C in Lytton but 24°C in Kamloops...

29.2°C in Braeburn, new September record for Yukon. Dozens of monthly records broken.

Likely due to the NE flow at the 850mb level bringing in smoke from the Coquihalla wildfire. :sick: :thumbdown:

Yup, 25.8C here. Fairly comfortable, just a touch muggy.

Overall, we dodged a bullet in the valley and Metro Vancouver. Wednesday was the only legitimately hot day. Tuesday was a bit uncomfortable.

Agreed. The wildfire smoke kept temperatures down. Tomorrow (Friday) might be a couple degrees warmer if there is less smoke. Likley muggy regardless. :sick: :wave:

Weird l couldn't sign in for a couple of day's :wtf: finally l was able to tonight. Guess l didn't miss much other than the fact all the local mountains have disappeared in the central valley desert due to smoke aloft and some smoke at ground level. :o Hoping Stuffos and family were able to catch a glimpse of the local mountains this week in their new home before things went sideways. :lol: :sick:

Looks like another day of underperforming temperatures. (Mostly upper level) smoke and clouds are making for no direct sun or shadows this morning.

EC says the smoke should clear tomorrow.
