Water spout and funnel cloud warnings for land and sea here today. They should be "cold core" and nothing major, if they happen, but still a rare alert for us.

No funnels. But a lovely afternoon. Only 23C in my yard but feels WAY hotter. I'm constantly taking 10-minute breaks in the shade.

Those celebrating their quashed fraud charges on a yacht better be on the watch.

Apex mountain resort, just west of penticton

TownGuy · #**4465** Posted **Aug 24, 2024, 9:08 PM**

^ I know that's at the top of a mountain but still pretty wild to see.

Pleasant day here. Mostly sunny. Warm with a smidge of humidity.

Nicko999 · #**4466** Posted **Aug 25, 2024, 2:51 AM**

26C with a humidex of 29 and mainly sunny.

The low was 17C this morning. Very comfortable sleeping weather.

The warmspot was Last Mountain, SK at 32.0C.

Warmest low was Royal Island, ON at 19.0C.

A mixed bag. Cool and mostly cloudy with some spots of sun and some scattered light showers and drizzle.

Saturday's high at Vancouver Harbour was 16 C, the low was 13 C.

Going up to 29C today in KW. Gonna go for a hike with the fam at an off leash park nearby so the dog can get rid of her zoomies.

23C and sunny in Moncton at 10 AM, going up to 29C later this afternoon, with a 30% chance of showers. Another perfect summer day.

Low tide at Alma NB, right next to Fundy National Park, an hours drive from Moncton. Naturally air conditioned by the Bay of Fundy, and, a refuge from the summer ague for inland Monctonians.

Another spectacular, lazy Sunday.

I was having an iced latte with my parents sitting out on Water Street, and a group of tourists passed by while one of the guys was saying, "This is what San Francisco could be. And should be." So I was absolutely gleeful

Build.It · #**4471** Posted **Aug 25, 2024, 8:44 PM**

Well that was a nice day. Got up to 29C here in KW.

Took the dog to Crane Park in Guelph so she can run around leash free for 2 hours. She spent all her energy and has been passed out since we got back. She's getting a bath later though (she doesn't know it yet).

TownGuy · #**4472** Posted **Aug 25, 2024, 10:05 PM**

Beautiful summer day. Beach looked to be busy.

Saw a few Salmon swimming up stream

Nicko999 · #**4473** Posted **Aug 26, 2024, 3:10 AM**

25C with a humidex of 30 and mainly sunny. Thunderstorm this afternoon. We might have broken the all-time August precipitation record depending on how much the airport got.

Low of 19C this morning.

The warmspot was Churchill, MB at 33.5C (There is a 36.4C Chapleau reading but like back in June, it is incorrect).

Warmest low was Winnipeg (the Forks), MB at 23.3C

Muggy weather has fully returned. High of 26.7 with a humidex of 35.

A cricket just landed on my window

SignalHillHiker · #**4475** Posted **Aug 26, 2024, 10:22 AM**

EC is up to something. Probably nothing good lol

Also, absolutely no way the airport is the physically closest to me

Must be measuring from some other point, probably the airport, ha!

Curious to do an average of Quidi Vidi (open to the sea breeze, more frequent fog than downtown) and Kilbride (more sheltered than I am, way less dog) to see if it's exactly my station, ha!

MonctonRad · #**4476** Posted **Aug 26, 2024, 11:32 AM**

Yes, they're doing the same thing for Moncton too, giving me about five choices in the metro area to choose from in terms of local weather conditions and forecast. The closest to me is Hildegarde", which in the broadest sense is my neighbourhood, but about five subdivisions to the east. I've never liked the name Hildegarde. It sounds like some fat broad wearing a horned helmet in a Teutonic opera.

Currently 16C and sunny in Moncton at 8 AM, going up to 27C this afternoon with showers and thunderstorms. It remains humid.

It doesn't matter which location you choose, the actual observations are still coming from the airport so they'll end up being exactly the same.

Environment Canada basically have every location imaginable now, and while they have increased their number of observation sites, they haven't to the same extent as they've increased selectable locations.

Marty_Mcfly · #**4478** Posted **Aug 26, 2024, 12:56 PM**

Currently sunny and 25 (humidex 30, dew point 17) at 10:30am. Highs today near 28. This is likely our last hot stretch of weather of the year, was also 27 yesterday.

Sun aint quite as strong as it was just a month ago, mornings are a little cooler, takes a bit longer to warm up throughout the day.

SignalHillHiker · #**4479** Posted **Aug 26, 2024, 1:09 PM**

Ooh yeah, baby!
