Recall a couple extremely anomalous (considering the time of year) high overnight lows during that heatwave though from either Malahat or West Vancouver.
Unfortunately we don't have our old forum to verify this but l recall Mr. M mentioning this l think it was the Malahat station.

It's crazy that the previous September record is so hot actually (37.5C at YXX). Especially during the tail end of the summer where the day and night are almost of equal length.

Fortunately, a lot of work has been done on those levees in the intervening years. 16 years ago the levees were in the opposite situation, with maintenance having been cut. Also, as bad as it is, Ida is a less severe storm than Katrina was.
It's called clown range for a reason.
