Abbotsford still has yet to hit 20C this June. Warm month!

Fake news!

At least 20.5C on June 10.

Really nice out at the moment!

This spring has been about 'enjoy the moment!'

Ah, makes sense. The 10th is the only day with missing data on the daily report.

Looks like today is the warmest day of the month at many stations across the region. Pitt Meadows hit a scorching 21.9C!

And 34.8C in Moosonee...

[Glacier]

And 34.8C in Moosonee...

Impressive! I remember Moosonee being the Canadian hotspot for several days in a row way back about 15 years ago.

Actually, it's not unusual for Moosonee or Waskaganish, QC to be the hot spot of Canada in late spring or early summer when there is a strong SW flow.

Almost 36C in New Brunswick today. Close to the provincial monthly record. Tomorrow should be hotter...

And then there’s the humidity…

The humidity out east can sometimes be pretty horrific during summer. Was in Toronto in July 2013 and the second you stepped outside was like being in a sauna. I much prefer the heat here in the west...even though extremes are higher, the heat doesn't feel nearly as oppressive due to the low humidity.

36c? That’s disgusting.

I was there that same year, think it was August. What an absolute nightmare. I thought Kelowna was hot growing up. Humidity is most of the battle.

I'll take our climate with its terrible snowfall record 7 days a week and twice on Sunday. Nice and temperate.

In a sauna, the heat is (extremely) dry (80-110C with RH<20%). It's in a hammam where the heat is humid (45C with RH>90%).
But today was not a humid day in the East (dew points were between 12C and 17C). This is nothing.

West of the Rockies -> dry heat.
East of the Rockies -> humid heat.

The south coast can get fairly humid during legit heat waves, but not nearly on an eastern level. Much more compared to the interior though.

This is a test. Is it working now?
