Inversion conditions are likely starting Sunday on the coast and Monday in the interior.

Give it a week Mr. M should be all repaired. :lol: we reached a high of 9c in the central valley @ the pond in south Sardis and it's currently 5c here's a shot of one of the lower mountains l can see from the pond but most higher mountains look absolutely stunning with the first decent snowfall of the season. :thumbup:

It's currently 4c @ the pond in south Sardis with the occasional gust of annus NE winds in the central valley.
If you want to call it Summer Houndnoser remember he had the wet fall like stretch so it wasn't quite like a sudden switch.

It appears we head into a wet stretch perhaps mid next week, all in all a typical fall IMO the million dollar question how mild will November be and wet. :dunno:

It looks like 2c is the lowest so far in the central valley @ the pond barely a breeze when l left work in Abbs down near Sumas. But as soon as l turned the Whatcom Rd. corridor the wind picked up from the NE but it's not as bad this morning in Chilliwack it's currently 3c.

Edit: 0.0ËšC now. First freeze and first frost.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Not in the central valley Rubes as the Annus NE fart winds continue to stir things up out here plus it's too dry for frost as well. :damn: but we have a couple more cracks at it the winds should die down tonight. :thumbup:
