Arrived in Whistler at noon, very pleasant day, 20° with no sign of any rain. Saw revenge of the western tadpole at Lost Lake.

Well at least we got some much needed rain the past couple days. Looks like the heat is going to locked in place for the foreseeable future.

WTF sorry skipper Gumps Trex's vaca offer was better. You know how it is on a fixed income. l'm so looking forward to sweating to the oldies later this week. Speaking of Richard Simmons was sad to hear of his passing afew day's ago.
It's currently 19c @ the fish pond in south Sardis.

That's absolutely insane Jr. Man but once again good call. Our backseat heat miser Cmen69 is on board with another never ending heat hump as well. but can we induce a Tstorm into it at some point.

4th wettest day on record for late July at YVR. MUCH more significative than a daily record...

26.2 mm (July 27, 2000)
25.1 mm (July 21, 1963)
21.4 mm (July 25, 1995)
19.0 mm ((July 29, 2024)
18.8 mm (July 24, 2023)
17.5 mm (July 26, 1948)

2nd wettest day in 60 years AND daily record..not bad Gooseman

[Hawk]

Interesting to see two of the wettest late July days on record at YVR occurring in back-to-back years. Very statistically significant given it is the driest time of the year.

Yes. And also note the following winter we got hammmerd with snow when we shouldnt have really. This year is a Nina and we will see how the snows play out by March

In 84 years (since 1937).

Major rain moving in soon !
Only at 8mm here so far but should make 20 with the next batch!

You called it John! 15 to 30mm it was!!

[PortKells]

You called it John! 15 to 30mm it was!!

Happy to be wrong about this one.

[Canada Goose]

47.5 mm in Coquitlam for the month (41 mm in 48 h), 4 mm above the 2014-2024 average.

That's insane Glace probably some local wildlife crapped on the temperature sensor. we reached a high of 22.6c @ the sardine pond in south Sardis.

It's totally legitimate. The next day two stations rose 38 and 37 degrees to the east (Big Creek and Tautri Creek). -30 to +8 and -38 to -1 respectively. Both of these stations are over 1100m elevation.

It often Chinooks in the west one day, but takes a day to east the eastern part of the Chilcotin. Tautri Creek, northwest of Alexis Creek was -44 the morning Tatla Lake was -43. Then rose to -17, then down to -38, and finally up to -1.

Tatla lake rose to 0, and then only dropped to -9 on the morning of the 6th before rising to +2.

As the 2nd graph shows below, the lower elevation locations were filled with cold air that cannot be pushed out as easily as places up on the plateau.

This was a POWERFUL storm that even caused the temperature Bella Coola to rise 27 degrees in a single day! It also dumped over 100mm of rain in a single day (plus all the snow and rain from the day before when it was -17)!

It's amazing really how 100mm plus can dump on the west side of the mountains, and places right up against the coast mountains like Tatla Lake had absolutely nothing! Anahim Lake did get 6 cm of snow on the 7th and Kleena Kleene did have a trace.

Chilcotin River is totally blocked because of that massive rainstorm this week that has caused a mudslide...

36.8 mm storm total in Misison.

[Glacier]

Every single second 200+ cubic meters of water are added to the lake behind the slide. They figure that in 48 hours, she blows.... https://www.facebook.com/share/v/sCY4mgYxpr2KfAkv/
