It was mostly in a narrow band from the eastern Olympic Peninsula, through the San Juan and Gulf Islands, to the western zones of the Greater Vancouver area, and up Howe Sound.

Looks like Vancouver Harbour was the wettest reporting station in the province yesterday with 23.5 mm. 18.5 mm IMBY. Most stations got under 10 mm. Most interior stations got somewhere between a few mm and nothing at all. We are going to need a more widespread event to end fire season.

Northeast Coquitlam is typically the winner during rain events but recorded less than half of your total. 9.0mm.

When the dew point reaches that temperature in Chicago in summer, they talk about how dry it is.

Last time I was in Chicago in August, dew point was around 20ËšC. Temperature was around 25. People were talking about how cool and dry it was.

Just checked and it's currently 27C with a dew point of 26C in Orlando. That works out to a relative humidity of 94%, which gives us a humidex value of 40C. Keep in mind, it's 2:03 AM there right now. Without A/C, I doubt anybody is getting any sleep. :sick: :sick: :sick:
