VancouverIslandSouth Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 Low to mid 50s with light rain here currently. I’m working in Victoria today. Looks like it’s a little warmer and a little wetter at home in Shawnigan The 12z ECMWF shows a nice soaker of a system next Saturday: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VancouverIslandSouth Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 Looks like we get left out for that mid-July system It'll probably shift south a bit, most of them have been lately.

Talked to my mom the other day it was 48F with heavy rain. I think they ended up with around 1.5” of rain that day at our cabin. I saw a report it was snowing up on whistler mountain today.

MV_snow Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 Is anyone else surprised at how little clearing western WA has gotten recently despite the thoughy pattern? A summer trough can often bring decent weather here despite the cooler temps. However, we have not seen the sun at all since Monday and I am not optimistic about much clearing next week after Sunday. Is there something specific about this particularly troughy pattern that just sucks for WA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just keep underperforming. Wonder when this cold stretch will end. There's still a prevailing sense around here that the last six or seven years is in fact our warm season climo and not something of an aberration (mired within the bigger picture of climate change).

Yeah, probably not a great recollection of summers like 2010 or 2011. And our last truly significantly cold midsummer (July 1993) was long before his time and also long before North Bend, WA was really on the map.

Just seems like recently, western WA needs to rely on ridging to get summer sunshine while OR can score nice days in a troughy pattern. I would love it if we could score sub-70 July highs will wall to wall sunshine but that seems doubtful. I know the clouds are worse here in the foothills too compared to areas further west.

Requiem Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 While we're voicing weather complaints-- perhaps this'll be the year for another windstorm in the Willamette Valley. Our highest gust last year was in fact from an easterly wind event-- of course, those are always a treat as well. With the extra time and the pandemic allowing, I'll hopefully go up to Crown Point this winter when I have a little time off. 1 Quote "Let's mosey!" --Cloud Strife ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Top 5 Snow Events (post 2014): (1.

I would love it if we could score sub-70 July highs will wall to wall sunshine but that seems doubtful. I know the clouds are worse here in the foothills too compared to areas further west. I was actually wondering the same thing. It has been a long time since I have seen conditions like this during June. Typically we see a lot of marine pushes/June Gloom with cloud cover and mist until some clearing later in the afternoon. This last week has been more dynamic with wind and rain every day but then turns into just low cloud cover and wind in the afternoon without any clearing.

Weird to have this many days in June / July without any clearing. Hopefully we’re just taking our medicine now and we’ll see a decent second half of summer.
