Dreary, wet, chilly and blustery.

Monday's high at Vancouver Harbour was 8 C, the low was 7 C.

Actually almost froze overnight, going down to 1 degree. High of 21 and sun today though. Rain overnight and for the next 5 days though, which is perfect for the grass seed I spread yesterday.

EC showing 20 degrees to Ottawa today and 22 tomorrow. WNetwork is a bit more conservative at 19 and 19 both days. Things should really green up here this week!

It felt like summer in Kitchener-Waterloo today: sunny, 72F/22C. But I was literally knocked out for surgery and under the effects of general anesthesia so I only felt it briefly afterwards when picking up my Tylenol 3.

Back in Toronto, high 50s and they're doing the prescribed burn in High Park so it's like a forest fire around here.

Spectacular day today, 22.9 with a humidex of 27 and sunny

Apparently the loud sound we heard during the eclipse was not thunder, but a sonic boom due to the rapid temperature and pressure drop.

I'm going to read up on it, because I don't necessarily believe what people say. There was some kind of loud boom, which I assumed was thunder.

It was a beautiful day yesterday, the sun's rays was crisp and bright, casting dark and define shadows, crazy thing to say or notice but it seemed different, maybe I was just having a very good day
Cherry blossom people were out in force yesterday.

For those look at my Hamilton updates (Though my cell phone camera is not great, so it migrates to that aesthetic naturally)

It's 17C currently, which is rather hot for me. I look forward to night time at this rate. Anyways, it's partly cloudy, with a thin veil of cloud cover across the sky, but the sun is still getting through just fine.

It's sunny and 61F in Toronto but I'm in pain, debating taking a T3. Basically I'm bedridden for the next few weeks, possibly a month...

Wednesday's high at Vancouver Harbour was 14 C, the low was 6 C.

The was an exceptionally grating, demoralizing cold snap but it's partially broken today. Should hit 4C with sun
