16°C at 1:30 pm, with thin spots starting to show in the overcast. Breezy, as it has been all morning.
It's called clown range for a reason.

To be honest, nobody has anyway of knowing whether or not the heat wave was a once in a lifetime event. It was certainly an extreme event and therefore, there we may never experience anything like it again. But we have no way of knowing that. The weather will do what it's going to do. Apart from the fact that it was the most extreme event in history, it's just speculation.

It's perfectly fine if they want to use it as a Sea Island station.

Just don't use it to represent Vancouver. :sick:

The other Vancouver station was also hotter in July 2009.... Vancouver Harbour CS. Of course, you might be thinking, "ah, but Deadman's Island is even worse!"

Well, at least it's not Sand Heads or Point Atkinson!

Max of only 18°C today, thanks to marine clouds that did not fully dissipate until late afternoon.

That's quite the temperature swing! More than one would expect to see even in Tibet.

It is a WeatherBell graphic, and WeatherBell specializes in raw model output. It is intended for professional forecasters and weather enthusiasts, not for the general public. I can assure you it is not proofread at all. WeatherBell snarfs in the raw numeric data, feeds it into automated programs, and generates graphics from it. The process is entirely automated.

They call the output of model runs model guidance for a reason. That is all it is: guidance. Forecasts are still issued by humans.
