That’s not a lot of rain but if the systems come in a bit south it could be good. Does feel like we are in warm dry pattern lock

TStorm in the Similkameeeens..producing heavy downpours, thunder and lightning. Depending on perspective..run of the mill for up here. For Coastal standards this would be epic :shock: :shock:

Anyone notice how big the bees are this year. Seems unusual. I've seen some massive Hornet looking bees.

Stink bugs are still around as well.
Prolly the Asian Killer Hornets :shock:

Yep. We're stuck in this for better or for worse. Generally the precipitation either stays out in the long range or becomes insignificant by the time it gets here.

Saddened by the passing of Deb Hope also known as Deb van der Gracht before she married the camera man at then BCTV in Burnaby.
She suffered with early dementia l grew up watching her so down to earth friendly and a terrific news anchor.. R.I.P.
It's a warm 21c @ the pond in south Sardis
