It has been a very dry winter so even with cold, the extra snow in the past week or two isn't enough to make up for being so dry for so long.

Environment Canada claims that April was the 3rd driest since 1899 in Kelowna, but that's a lie. I count 17 other Aprils that were drier.
1894, Glace that's incredibly high :shock: wow! I remember 1972 l was in grade 7 living in Point Grey but l remember every morning CKNW would give the Mission guage reading. I remember when l lived in Maple Ridge and taking the old Albion ferry on one of the docking posts on the Albion side someone wrote Noah floods written high up on the post. :shock:
The 7th annual snowfall contest is canceled due to no snow this winter.

Some outliers look warm, but the mean just touches average. Mind you, average will feel warm. :lol:

Yeah Thot we don't need a quick warm up, we don't need another Sumas lake repeat or central valley flooding it wouldn't be good. Recovery on the Sumas prairie is all ready months to go but steady progress continues currently. :thumbup:
