I'm surprised there isn't a warning or sws, EC calling for windchill - 13 in Sechelt, winds up to 40 km/h in the early morning and a cold -4 overnight! :shock:

It's a bit windy out there now and cold. Didn't even reach 5C today.

2015 on this day was a balmy 15.6C, 2009 the coldest at 1.0C.

No soup for you? That's too bad , I was going to suggest that if you ever run out of bread or crackers you could always put some toilet paper in your soup , mmmm yummy! Lots of fibre,keeps you regular .

Yeah I'll message you the link in the morning was a great watch by a expert doctor.

Found it, Not sure If he says it here but pretty sure. Nonetheless a good watch and really shows you how anyone claiming it's a "regular flu" is wrong. The truth is there's a good chance this will be around spring time and come roaring back in September as the CDC thinks.

Anyways the link below is a good read and shows 70 percent of Americans could be infected within 2 months and with the way they dropped the ball, I agree.

What people forget is Italy had no cases and a week later was in the 1000s.

These outflow winds just won't let up. They've been going strong out here in Abbotsford since Friday. It's absolutely insane.

YXX is currently reporting NE 54 gusting to 70 km/hr.

My humidity is down to 25%. I think it's dry? :clap: :shock:

With nothing to do half the lower mainland has descended upon white rock and crescent beach. The wildlife life action has now shifted to crescent beach with hundreds of seagulls dive bombing baitfish, most likely anchovies, but this time eagles and hawks have joined in on the action. Never seen so many hawks and eagles down there,probably 30-50.
