We are having an extended dry spell before fire season. We have lots of trees to burn down. So no.

I think he's expecting up to a foot. Man I would love to be in Estes Park for this one!

Campfire ban is coming into effect here on Thursday by the sounds of it.

Hit 84 here yesterday. Looks like record shattering heat should be confined to the interior today though Weather summary for British Columbia issued by Environment Canada at 12:36 a.m. PDT Tuesday 5 May 2026. Discussion.

Why were you talking about April yesterday then? The interesting thing about May is that yes, since 2015ish there have been a similar number of top tier warm ones to the summer months. The difference is that most of those were 2015-2019, and a good number of the other recent Mays have been quite seasonable (unlike July and August). In addition, it's not a linear warming signal into the summer...at OLM, for example, there have been 4 top tier warm Mays since 2015, but only 2 Junes. But the clearest fact is that no other months can compete with the consistent increase in temperatures that July/August, the peak of summer, has seen.
