Wow! that just insane but pretty.

So this heat coming up this weekend is it your garden variety or does it have some meat to it, I hope it's temporary it's way to early to be scorching out there just yet.

Yes but Pitt Meadows station is too warm... Not a good location (overexposed).

For a good station in our area, look at Port Moody station (I saw it and it's a good location; I need to come back to take a photo).

Pitt meadows station is not bad actually enough grass they also did a calibration on the temperature way back maybe 10 years ago or so it use to read too high. Yes please more weather station photos Sherriff Goosed you can get it in there with your background and get the real stuff.

18z is fairly dry thru day 10. Will probably not add too much more precip to the monthly tally.

Sunny with 100% chance of isolated cottonwood balls , 1-5 cm can be expected , higher amounts along the curb.

Looking pretty tame. Possibly some instability. Pop up showers and thunderstorms

You may want to head up to Haida Gwaii for year round rainfall.

Interesting take. Luckily I won't have to as it looks like we'll escape this awful ridging at the start of June

Cooking out there today. Certainly feels much warmer than the thermometer would suggest.

Looks like a thunderstorm heading through Harrison/Aggasiz. Maybe Chilliwack peeps could see some action?

The sunny weekend has sure fallen apart. Maybe we’ll salvage Sunday.

Yes it's just to my north but still sunny here on the south side of Sardis.

Hmmm...I noticed that with this mornings package a little more bearable for those that suffer during our heatwaves.

SWS for the Interior for heavy showers and T storms that could lead to flash floods and landslides.

Washington State has declared a drought emergency. Notice on the map on the CBC article that a lot of the areas border BC. Does anyone know if there has been a similar declaration in BC? If not should there be? I am not sure what the definition is for drought. I think it has something to do with a certain number of years in a row with below normal precipitation.

But is it a drought in Washington?
