Any smoke I smelled a while back sort of came and went so it might have just been something in the neighbourhood.
There's definitely smoke now. I also noticed it yesterday when I was on the Lion's Gate Bridge. Very light smell and appearance so far. The light on the sidewalk looks slightly orange.
According to the smoke forecast that GeeCee posted a
link to we should see some more light and medium smoke over the next day or two. Keeping fingers crossed that we can still avoid the heavy stuff.
Yesterday morning there was a very brief and light rain shower downtown. Barely enough to make the ground damp.
At YVR they also got a trace, BUT there has been
no measurable precipitation since June 15 at the airport.
If the rain that is
forecast later this week doesn't happen then I think it would be August 13 when we would hit 59 days without rain (at YVR) and possibly set
an all time record.
