[SouthSardiswx]

Hi forum friends well back to school sales soon. Will we have have hot August nights or P.N.E. rains time will tell. How about a good ol'e fashioned summer thunderstorm they don't seem to occur anymore.

[SouthSardiswx]

Well it's looking like another heat hump late next week to begin August.

Why do we always lack in T-Storms? We deserve at least 1 widespread storm!

Welcome to August! To say that the CFS is wet for September is an understatement

I’m not a big cfs person but that is a strong signal . Do you have access to any euro seasonals?

Just wait until I start posting those infamous hour 384 snowfall maps! No, I usually stop my WxBell subscription until some time in the Fall because it's usually pretty dull around here weather wise and it's expensive to just read about 7 days of sunshine and chances of smoke for $38/month

I for one have lots of anticipation Stuffs l can hardly wait to drool over 10 days away snowfall maps and the fights and the throwing each other under the bus that erupts on the forum and how can one not get excited over day after day of hearing about the Shizmilkameenzz . it's currently 29c @ the fish pond in south Sardis.

Temperature 28, dew point 18, humidex 34.

Well if the 18Z GFS verifies, then this current heatwave may just be the appetizer. While the Euro and GEM have backed off, there have been a few runs here and there showing something similar. It all depends on the exact position of the ridge and thermal trough, which remains uncertain.

As usual, YVR looks like the cold outlier. But it's the place to be if you want to beat the heat during a heatwave.

My high was 30.7C with a dew point of 18.1C. However, I still think my humidity/dew point readings are too low. YXX hit 20.5C for the dew point.

[Mattman]

Oh, joy. We have comparable humidity to Toronto. It’s reason 1/2 why I wasn’t happy with the rain earlier this week.

Ya, it's pretty gross out there this evening.

Currently +24.2c
Humidity 66%
Dewpoint +17.5

Humidex = +30c
