SHH's station: 24.6 (humidex 30)

Today is YYT's 79th day of 20 degree temperatures, which ties the record for most in a year (tied with 2012).

I can run ya down a sweater ya wants.

Ah well there you go. I was out of town and didn't check.

SignalHillHiker · #**42964** Posted **Oct 27, 2022, 9:22 PM**

Nice.

Also, Marty... I need your insight on this. I've seen countless articles over the past few years about how global warming is increasing average wind speeds here. I can't remember the last time I FELT wind. What is behind that discrepancy/cognitive dissonance?'

Also, why did NTV hire RT to make that graph? lol That 2011 47 is almost a 2021 69 lol

Uh oh. What's going on with the stairs there? Time to demolish and rebuild? Looks like they've re-done the corners before but not lately.

They tore down the very wide wooden steps on the trail by my house and replaced with metal stairs recently. Now it doesn't look as rustic to fit in with all the trees and the creek.

I'm tired just looking at those stairs. And I've climbed one of those pyramids in Mexico and did the CN Tower stair climb.

I think the most stairs I've climbed were the Statue of Liberty, and maybe Wreck Beach?
I took the elevators in the CN Tower, because I'm modern.

A month ago I was in Niagara on a Wednesday (that phenomenal day as evidenced from my personal pic of the river from ground level). I wanted to climb the Brock monument to get this view below. I was up 1/3 of the way and a voice said hello? You can't be here. So I had to come back down. He said the door was open because he was the structural engineer doing the annual check and he was on the outside when I had gone in. The website said it was open W F Sa Su. I called the park authority and they said yeah, that was a mistake. I politely asked them to fix it because I had just wasted half hour of driving out of the way and then 3 bucks on parking. I can't be the only one disappointed.

To get up from the whirlpool section of the Niagara Gorge is a workout too.

And regarding SHH's INFATUATION

with stairs, he can walk up the Baldwin stairs in Toronto like in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World next time he comes 'round these parts.

Vancouver Weather:

But at least the SUN appears on that graphic 5 times!!

Nicko999 · #**42971** Posted **Oct 28, 2022, 3:02 AM**

10C and sunny. A bit breezy but overall not too bad. It's awful compared to the last 5 days though.

Low of 7C this morning. I am pretty sure we will freeze in the next couple of hours, it's already 5C at 11PM and the sky is completely clear.

The warmspot was Cheticamp, NS at 23.3C.

Warmest low was Halifax (Dockyard), NS at 15.1C.

A bit wet this morning, but the day turned out pretty nice. High of 27c in Taipei.

mcminsen · #**42973** Posted **Oct 28, 2022, 6:24 AM**

Another soaker of a day.
The morning wasn't bad with a bit of sun poking through.
Then the rain and wind set in for the afternoon and beyond.
Overcast, rainy, blustery, chilly.

Thursday's high at Vancouver Harbour was 12 C, the low was 8 C.

USS Gerald R. Ford coming for the weekend in Halifax on it's first port of call outside the U.S. This is the world's largest aircraft carrier, and the largest warship ever constructed in terms of displacement.

Sunny and cooler this am warming up to 12 and then warmer and sunny on the weekend.

Currently cloudy and a cooler 11 at just after 10am. High already reached overnight at 17 degrees. Temperatures will fall to around 8 this afternoon, with clearing later in the day.

Looks like Montreal froze overnight. Toronto survives with a low of 1.3 degrees.

Nicko will be wearing his black armband when he updates the freeze list.

The worm has turned here in Moncton. Currently +2C at 9 AM, only getting up to 9C today (which is actually seasonable).

Sunny all weekend with highs both days of 13C, which is seasonably pleasant weather.

Nice photos of the Gerald Ford. I am getting stir crazy in Moncton recovering from my bout with pneumonia. I might actually take a completely spurious and unnecessary drive down to Halifax this weekend just to have a gander.

Hope your feeling better MonctonRad, the Halifax Transit ferries will probably be one of the best ways to get up-close to this monster.

It's a whole U.S. strike force not just the carrier. A Danish war ship is coming in currently entering the harbour behind it.

And 4,000 passenger capacity Norwegian Breakaway is also in port today:

I'd imagine the Atlantic coast of Canada has more armament temporarily protecting it than any other time in it's history...

^No doubt! Not something you see everyday.
