El Nito is here with the forks!

Some models are painting a wet picture for this weekend. We shall see how it pans out. The PNE is here and the rain hath arrived.

I've always loved variable conditions. I wouldn't like 4 months of summer rain and I equally hate 30C every day with everything dying. Variable conditions are the best for gardening, for all plant/animal life and also gives everyone some weather they prefer.

Agreed. That's why I love climates with four seasons. Dynamic weather is the best!

This will be so refreshing. The heaviest rain falls late Friday night and tapers off Saturday morning.

Go figure the most impressive thunderstorms of the summer formed out of nothing and hit the Lower Mainland in the middle of the night.

Just noticed that EC updated their website and has a pretty big list of BC cities on their forecast page now. 1549 to be exact.

Guessing they are not really that detailed per location but rather taken from the nearest main city/town forecast. Or as likes to constantly say... AI

Anyways.. carry on.

Amazingly comprehensive. Has both Boston Bar and North Bend listed. Neither is very large, and they basically sit on opposite banks of the Fraser from each other. It should be useful when I visit the Fraser Canyon. Have had to rely on the forecast for Lytton, which is often significantly warmer and drier than Boston Bar.

For what it's worth (which is not much), HRRR is calling for a thunder chance again. Clearly someone needs to fix it to account for the Lower Mainland anti-thunderstorm zone.

No someone has to account that we are not Toronto Rubes.

Clearly you slept through last night.

Some models are showing we will get 50mm of rain by Saturday. I will be glad to take something like that and then finish off the month of August with beautiful sunny weather.
