You had a T-storm in New West? I did get some showers here in East Van, but no thunder or lightning.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Catnip wrote: Thu Aug 22, 2024 11:38 am 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 :sard: likes to constantly say... AI

Anyways.. carry on.

:shrug:
That's really exciting!!! Roberts Creek is now listed with 2 locations. Yay! Local weather....oh wait a minute, all the different locations, 2 in the creek and 5 or more around Sechelt are all from the weather station at Wilson Creek Airport.

Never mind AI, it's either spam or fake news. :thumbdown: :thumbdown: :thumbdown:

This is looking like it could be one of the most significant summer rain events in a long time. Here are the totals by 10:00AM on Saturday:

At face value, that would be one of the most significant summer rainstorms (going off daily rainfall totals) on record.

Could rival the August 2010 rainstorm which was a top tier event.

Back to back summer months with above average rainfall guaranteed.

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.
Fake reporting from AI Canada 🇨🇦 Rubes if you look closely at the fine print Both Boston Bar and North Bend is taken from Lytton Climate what a disaster EC is no proper reporting stations. Infact Boston flats is from Ashcroft go figure. :o :lol: :wtf: :shifty:
