27.9ËšC. Does not look like I will make it to 30 today. I am not complaining about that.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Here's the plume just outside of West Kelowna. When we were in Kelowna last week, it was a week ago today we took the kids to hike at Bear Creek--a trail I hiked many times as a kid. Although a very small forest fire burnt through some of the trail back in 2016, if the winds continue into tonight, I wonder if much of the forest around that area will be burnt. Winds to shift to NW tomorrow, however, sparing the Bear Creek area if it doesn't burn, but putting other properties in danger.

So far 32c is the highest at the pond in south Sardis today. :sick:
