I’ve installed a new temperature/humidity sensor in the equipment. The old Humidity sensor was reading 100% at times after heavy rainfalls, so I’m hoping this one will fix that.

The 77mm/hr rain rate value you see if bogus along with the 0.5mm of rainfall, that was unavoidable unfortunately as I had to remove the rain bucket so it recorded a false value. The high temperature of 16 is also false because the new sensor had not completely acclimatized to the new location. I’ll go in to the data at some point and remove those values, for now, just ignore them.

Enjoy the sun for the next couple days!!

Where did this wind come from?? Seems to be quite localized to our fair towm. Don’t see any other wind on islandweather.ca

Hawaii Mars left the Valley yesterday to escape the fog and spent the night in Nanoose Bay. They’re making the 6 hour flight to California today… good luck to them!!

Sorry for the weirdness this morning, my web server provider obviously FUBAR’ed the link when they switched my address… after some stern emails though it’s fixed.

Sunny skies on the horizon for Thursday as this California High builds in (as it burns San Diego and LA county!). Here’s hoping it doesn’t last long to spare more loss of life and property down there.

The Forecast says Sun for Thursday and Friday. Do you believe it!? :)

We have to go through two more days of wet to get there though. I also noticed there was plenty of snow on Mt. Arrowsmith on the weekend (when I could see it through the clouds). With it 14 degrees today though, I doubt it’s there now.

UPDATE: I have received an email from my web server provider that they will be doing maintenance on their servers from 11PM ET tonight. The website may be unavailable for up to 5 hours after 11PM tonight. It should be all back to normal by tomorrow.

Hi Everyone.

Just to let you know, I don’t plan on this ever being a daily forecast box or anything. I just don’t have time for that, as much as I’d like to. :)

Lots more Rain is forecast for the next 3 days as this big system sends us lots of wet from the SouthWest.

I’ve finished working on the design of the site, I believe I have all the bugs worked out, but if you see anything that looks out of place or out of line, don’t hesitate to email or leave a comment. By the way, I highly recommend using Firefox as your Internet browser of choice.
