VancouverIslandSouth Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 It did end up 1.3F cooler than 2016, obviously 2015 was even much warmer than that. Even a bit of an easterly sea breeze into Shawnigan Lake the last two days. Temp sitting around 73/ 74F. Yeah, I suppose 2015 was so much of an outlier that it just didn't feel that warm in comparison but it certainly seems to have been a warm month; 2015 would have been a warm month for July.

There hasn't been any measureable rain in this area in the past 13 days, and from the looks of the forecast it could be a long while before we see any to come.

VancouverIslandSouth Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 Your area is MUCH drier on average than his area. Sure, this area receives about half the annual rain that area does, but the difference is much less noticeable in the summer. Abbotsford airport is also sitting at 13 days without measureable precipitation. Regardless, any rain this morning must be of the very light / misty variety, there isn't much happening on the radar and no major stations have reported rain.

He never said it was heavy and widespread. But his area is prone to upslope drizzle in marine layer situations like this morning and your area is not.

There does seem to be a lot of marine stratus to the north of here, while the sky to the south is completely clear. This area is a lot less susceptible to marine stratus, there's nothing for it to pile against in the prevailing winds. The east side of Vancouver Island is pretty good at kicking the stratus at this time of year as well, looking nice at Rathtrevor today: http://webcam.beachacresresort.com/webcam/current.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 Wasn't a trough over the intermountain west part of a couple July forecasts? Looks like the complete opposite the next 7-10 days. Huge ridge over that region. Luckily we stay mostly on the periphery. Could be a hot trip to Montana July 15-22 if this pattern keeps up.

Phil Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 Yet another wavenumber 6+ pattern on the 18z GFS. We went over 9 years without a recurring W-6 until 2016. We've since seen 24 days of W-6 since last July.
