Beautiful.

That's the "ultimate trifecta" for cold in BC right there.
-PNA/-EPO/-NAO.

All primed up for an awesome winter for us

Don't know about anyone else, but we had a bit of a gusty north wind kicking up at Edgemont Village just now. Rain was at a 45 degree angle and a couple leaves are being thrown around despite the sogginess.

Or EC is wrong.

And there's a 150% chance that sardineman will be commenting on the photo.

At this point I'm inclined to wait and see. The GFS has had some blocky solutions for the next 7 days 7ish days ago only to cave to a more zonal pattern. Same for the end of the month: GFS was setting up a ridge by the end of the month yesterday, but now the 06z is zonal towards the end of the month. What is certain is model flip-flopping uncertainty.

Yeah, I guess we'll see. Just seems like we're overdue for a pattern change. 18z is back to showing a ridge in the mid and long range

+PNA towards end of month

Still at the time of year where a massive ridge can bring very warm temps.

Wouldn't mind a mild spell at all.

Yep. Looks very cold for central and eastern North America.

06z GFS nominally better (progressive) than yesterday in the clown range. The ridging that does occur is rather transient. No massive Omega Block ridge stays parked overhead. Well, onto the 12z.

I was hoping we wouldn't get into that ridgy forever garbage, l don't think we will this year.

[Roberts Creeker]

Downpouring right now. It's been raining most of the day started with drizzle. I need a rain gauge.

I saw somewhere accuweather saying we are due for a mild fall and dry winter.

I guess we can expect the opposite unless env Canada says different right?

[SouthSardiswx]

High winds and heavy rainfall in south Sardis. 14.7mm so far and had a wind gust of SW 35kmh so far this evening
Now up to 22.0mm today.
