Currently 21°C at 6:30 am. Going to a high of 37°C today. This will be a brutal one. Gotta stay home until my kitchen appliances are fixed, after which point I'm heading to the mall.
Yesterday was overcast and muggy, high of 27.3 with a humidex of 36 and low of 22. We're still getting a slight cooling effect from the lake, it was over 30 in Chatham last evening for my ball game.
Remnants of the hurricane are here, it was rainy early this morning, we've had an inch already and may get a few thunderstorms this afternoon.

I always find it interesting, of course this forum (especially the Canadian section) is eastern heavy, and that does make sense to an extant because of population, but none the less, when Quebec and Ontario were having heat comments were coming in from everywhere (Newfoundland, New Brunswick, etc…) about how hot that was and how it must feel. But when BC hits 42.5 real temperature (third day in a row at 40+) not a single comment (outside of Nikko of course, who is an honest weather loving jockey).
Not complaining, but curios to know why.
Is it because BC is so far away that it doesn’t register anymore than anywhere in the US?
Is it because such temps from the BC interior in summer have become somewhat normalized?
Is it because BC forum members aren’t as active here (except for negative commentary, a thorn in my side)?
I wouldn't think much of it Metro-One...though it has seem to normalize.
Edmonton is potentially surpassing its all time high today I believe. the EC forecast now calls for a high of 37? I think 36 is the all time high? may be wrong.
It was around 33c in my next of the woods yesterday (East Vancouver), and 31c down by the water. The temperature is fine, it's just the lack of AC that makes things a little more uncomfortable. Our apartment gets hot.
Ah, I see. Was thinking there or drifting north from the States. There are still many zombie fires from last year burning in North Eastern BC. I am surprised though that they are causing such poor visibility as far south and east as Regina while Fort St. John is clear.
