P.S. On average, September and October are the driest months of the year on the South Okanagan. For the coast, the summers are the driest and for most of the rest of the province, it's February-March.

Yes, it was hitting me and I refused to go back in.

[tsayta]

Snow? SNOW!!!! YES! Sign me up!!

[Glacier]

The Pacific water temperature is currently well below average, which typically means we're in for a fairly dry winter with not a lot of snow... but that's no guarantee.

[Glacier]

Oh, and a friend just posted this picture from their place in the Cariboo-Chilcotin this morning... first snow of the year!!!

[Catsumi]

Snow?? Not ALREADY!!

As long as it's not down here, yet.
