13.7c in Fort Nelson, 3.6c above the previous daily record. It was -21c last week when I was there. My timing was perfect I think after the really cold period but before today's warmup.
Why not try cycling to work, grocery store, anywhere!

Quite a thermal boundary. More so than any arctic outflow difference.

Imagine if the temperature dropped that fast? I think there is going to be a lot of condensation with the heat in the valley.

Temperature spike of 8-10 degrees in 5 minutes. That is crazy.

Downsloping in southerly flow off nearby mountains.
