No stickage here but at least it smells like summer. Burnt spruce, pine and fir . Area burned in BC is at 1,165,000 acres. The Largest fire is the Pear Lake Fire at a little over 400,000 acres. We drove through the ashes of the Pear lake fire where it crossed highway 97 around Clinton. Many homes along the highway were reduced to just a brick chimney and/or a metal wood stove pipe. The wind that came with that fire storm must have been intense as you could see large pieces of sheet metal wrapped around trees and utility poles. Dozens of hydro trucks were working to replace mile after mile of burnt utility infrastructure.

Well it shows a tenth of an inch here which usually means about 10% of that will fall and we'll end up with some nice sprinkles (unlikely).

EPS has 38% chance of at least a half inch of rain in the next 2 weeks for you. Best chance around a week from now.

Justin meant to post this but just hasn't had time.

Today has definitely been the smokiest of the summer so far here at home.
