Horrible area for a stevenson screen Corporal Goose may as well place it on cement the readings would be sky high from ground reflected heat.

It’s here! Rain from this system should be much more significant than the last one. And there’s more to come.

What a nice sound of heavy rain.

Your looking at another 4 weeks Houndman before rainfall actually saturates your ground through your tree canopy cover.

We already have more rain this evening than in the past 3 1/2 months. And it's still coming down! And lots fore on the way if EC is anything to go by, or their rain button got stuck.

Moderate rain

First frost this morning with a low in Sechelt of 2.2c at 8 am, high of 10.8c only 8 hours later and currently 6.7 and raining.

I felt bad about pulling out the beans yesterday but I wanted to put potatoes in. Now I'm glad I did, they wouldn't have survived the frost. Also harvested the yams and sweet potatoes, got a small haul from 5 plants.

El Nito, Ms Nofloodyetcreeks and pineapples as well for good luck. it's currently 6c @ the pond in south Sardis. My high today was 12c

I hope I'm still Ms Nofloodyetcreeks tomorrow morning. If this rain keeps up and it's just running off, the nonexistent creek may be a culvert washing torrent! I hope the culverts around the corner from me are ok, highways dept ran out of money to finish the job so they've been washing away in the minimal rain and creek flow. My distant neighbour said the propane truck driver got out and looked at it as he drove over and said he probably wouldn't be risking it again. My gravel road is full of potholes which will be nice swimming pools tomorrow.

It's just up the coast Ms. It'sfinallygoingto raincreeks, l've been watching it on radar at work slowly advancing this is so exciting it's like Christmas. well almost.
It's currently 10c @ the pond in south Sardis.
Nice to see no smoke at my work near Sumas in Abbyville.

That 'rainfall' was more like a passing drizzle, maybe 2 mm total. Well, we're in for it now!

[Roberts Creeker]

Now Sechelt is sueing the Seawatch owners?! After what they've gone thru and losing everything? How pathetic and cruel is that?

Smoke clearing out , I see blue sky.

I couldn't believe it when I read it either. talk about adding insult to injury. Though I do feel for all the people of Sechelt who will be paying taxes to cover the legal bills and settlements. At least I figure they're the ones that will be covering that, I'm not sure I Sechelt has insurance to pay for it???

Catching up on all the old news...my computer was under the weather and had a short stay at the repair shop at London Drugs. $50 later and they couldn't replicate it freezing so I brought it home and am back cruising the information highway!

[Roberts Creeker]

Oh dear me, well l think my reason for longevity is being able to walk around on my own two fins helps perhaps.

Hmmm...when my fish have tried walking around, it's never gone well. Must be your good Sardis air out there.

Welp the good news is there's no snowfall in the mountains to melt and cause major flooding in the fraser valley. however your culverts may take a hit. perhaps a go fund me for Sechelt highway's dept. may be needed Ms. Tricklingcreeks.
