Beautiful summer day. Beach looked to be busy.









Saw a few Salmon swimming up stream

That looks like an ear of corn that grew legs.

Another cold, wet, miserable October day in Vancouver. This month has really been awful. Supposed to get nicer again by the weekend at least.

27C with a humidex of 33 and sunny. About as perfect of a day you can get. Blue sky, moderate humidity, light to almost non existent wind.
Yesterday's t-storm amounted to 2.4 mm at YUL so the all-time August record still has not been broken. 2 mm away.

Low of 16C this morning.

The warmspot was Moosonee, ON at 32.5C.

Warmest low was Fort Frances, ON at 21.0C.

I didn’t find today particularly cold but it was grey and miserable.

Dude. I was shooting at an event up at Big White on Saturday, and the temperature plummeted. It was 31C in Kelowna on Friday, and then on Saturday, it was 5C and pouring rain up at Big White (around 45 minutes from Kelowna). It was the most difficult photoshoot I've ever done. I almost quit about six hours in. I was exposed to the rain with no shelter, and drenched with no water-resistant shoes or pants. I couldn't stop shivering. I made it through the shoot thanks to being able to put on some dry clothes after seven hours in the rain.

Here are some pictures from that mess of a day.

Some nice miserable picks!

There literally have been 2 bad days this August in the Okanagan, and they have both been epic bad days, last Satruday and Today.

If I was an organizer with that event I would have been so pissed off. August 1st to 23rd, good to great, August 24th... perhaps the worst August day in years, August 25th, was sunny and pleasantly mild again.

28C with a humidex of 35 and mainly sunny except for a 2 hour period this afternoon when it was more overcast. That probably ate one or 2 degree of the potential high.

Low of 19C this morning.

The warmspot was Windsor, ON at 33.4C.

Warmest low was Point Pelee, ON at 22.0C.

We hit a high of 31C with a humidex of 40 at Pearson, and since I was in Mississauga today, thats probably the same temperature we hit. I went for a walk to find a geocache around noon and boy did I sweat as I bushwhacked through the wooded part of a park near the Hershey Centre. I was afforded some pretty scenery, like a field of golden rod and virginia creeper, and some pretty vistas like this one:

This is what I ended up replacing the cache I was looking for with (it was missing).

21C with a humidex of 23 and sunny. Definitely cooler as the cold front went through this morning.

With the 7.2 mm from yesterday's storm, we have now received 229.3 mm this month which a new August all-time monthly record. Not a surprise as 67% of it fell in 1 day. A day that saw 65% more rain than the previous all-time daily record.

Low of 18C this morning. Cold front coincided with sunrise. As a result the actual low was achieved 2-3 hours later than normal at 9AM.

The warmspot was Point Pelee, ON at 29.2C.

Warmest low was Windsor, ON at 21.3C.

Mild enough tonight for a walk








Low of 11C this morning. Coldest morning in 2 months.

The warmspot was Lytton, BC at 32.3C

Warmest low was Harrow, ON at 19.6C.

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!

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.

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.

Hot and muggy, high of 29.1 with a humidex of 39.9 and a low of 20.2. There is a risk of thundershowers for the next couple days and a heat warning is in effect until Wednesday, humidex values near 40 could continue until Friday.

15C and sunny in Moncton at 8 am, going up to 27C this afternoon.

Cold front passes through tomorrow, bringing showers, and lowering temperatures for the remainder of the week to the low 20s.

Enjoyed the rare (here) treat of thunder and lightning this morning. Sporadic rain on an overcast day thus far.
