WRF shows the outflow continues in the Valley through mid morning Sunday. Will be tough to decouple if your exposed to the NE wind.

Not quite, Yaleman should be oiling up the bike and putting snows on the tricycle. John should be practicing how strong and how much for Chilliwack. Anyone know how Mrs. Bug's is doing?

So a prolonged outflow wind event for the valley? What are your thoughts on gusts? Mine would be 50 gusting to 70 km/h.

2.2c with no wind at all here. First freeze of the season is within touching distance.

Looks like the outflow is keeping temps up in the valley tonight. Low dewpoints though.

Thick layer of frost out there this morning.

Avoided the outflow winds last night and briefly dipped to -0.2c half an hour ago. Currently 0.1c with a light NE breeze.
