22C and sunny today! Below normal but pleasant nonetheless.
The low of 15C this morning was to coldest temperature recorded this month.
The Canadian warmspot was Lytton, BC at 40.2C. That is the new warmest temperature of 2012 in Canada. Perhaps the latest 40C reading ever in the country?
haha, just how I feel, Ashcroft, Lytton, Osoyoos and Lillooet flirted with the 40 degree mark so many times this summer, now it finally happened. Always an impressive temperature to see in the Great White North.
As for Nikko, you may be on to something, August 18th is pretty late for 40 degrees, usually in BC all our 40 degree readings happen during the second half of June, July, or the first week of August.
PS - Campbell River has now gone 3 weeks (21 days) with no precipitation.
This is why I think you would like Victoria much more over Vancouver, because it is actually the sunniest and driest major city in Canada outside of the Prairies. Victoria has more of what you describe where storms blow through and then there is sunshine, in fact, for example, in December, which is the darkest month in Victoria, in the downtown area on average 20.5 days a month still record some bright sunshine, with 316 days annually recording some bright sunshine. In July, 30.3 days a month on average record bright sunshine!
You completely missed her point though. And take this from a person who has lived in the lowermainland and Victoria their whole life, we don't have those tropical type showers she mentioned. Unlike in the east, we don't get the warm rain type down-poors.
umm, we weren't talking about the warmth of the rain, haha! Or even how it falls, we were simply talking about the amount of sunshine a place receives, and Victoria is considerably sunnier than Vancouver, and indeed receives more sunshine hours and less rain than Toronto and Montreal annually
Has Edmonton ever had a summer with this many +30 C days?
Dunno, but it is +28 with an expected high of 31 today and it is already feeling +32 with humidex.

I can think of a couple years during the dry years where we had this much or more.
I remember just a few years back having quite a few days of consectutive +30 days. About the time I was renovating the house and stripped the siding off. House got kinda warm for a few weeks.
