Looks like 15-25mm for LM tomorrow. Even the Similkameens is forecast to get 10-15 :problem:
I hope I get rain tomorrow, my pasture is drying up and mud is but a distant memory. I started watering today, need the grass to grow. EC isn't giving an amount, it'll probably just be a passing shower. :? ;)

Saw a couple distant flashes to the south/southeast and heard 2 or 3 very distant rumbles about 10:45p.m. from out in Popkum.
Current radar is showing precip moving in a northeastlery direction off the cascades. Cells are probably not holding together as per usual once they get over the cascades and due to border force field and Covid restrictions. :crazy: It's a pleasant 18c and cloudy @ the pond in south Sardis.

Another outstanding amazing shot Ms. Christmasinjulycreeks. Perhaps a little fake snow, tinsel, lights and afew bobbles on the trees would have given it that holiday spirit. :thumbup:

The most disappointing aspect of this summer is the lack of thunderstorm activity in the lowermainland. It's not that we haven't had the lack of moisture moving up from the south, we have but it seems to fall apart before crossing the border.
And the TStorms we did have back on Monday Jun. 27th wasn't even fotecasted. :crazy:

Early September 2019 was the last decent storm out here. :thumbdown: currently very light showers in the area and 16c @ the pond in south Sardis.

Looks like most of the Lower Mainland will miss out on thunderstorms. Looked so promising a couple of nights ago.

Our polar spring weather has carried over into summer. :x

Could this be the "year without summer"? :shock:

Flashback to the 80s and 90s which had some relatively cold and wet summers. Average summer precip went up when both decades were in the climate normals.

I think I've had about half a dozen already this year. Above average for this area, but none have been impressive.

Today has been very underwhelming, though. I've received just 5.4 mm so far.

EC is forecasting 10-15 mm today and another 5-10 mm tonight, but the bulk of it was supposed to fall by now. Radar looks pretty dry.
