Always wondered why the last day or two of heatwaves in town is warmer than the valley is that due to thermal trough placement thus lighter winds in Vancouver.
The 7th annual snowfall contest is canceled due to no snow this winter.

Yup. Typically YVR has its warmest day at the very tail end of a heat wave for that very reason.
