Our streets damp. Better than nothing though as it somewhat cleared the air
Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. There’s a certain point at which ignorance becomes malice, at which there is simply no way to become THAT ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.

That was one crazy hail storm tonight! Largest hail I've ever seen.

It's 0300 and I just came in from outside to check for evidence of rain downtown and found none.

In Rutland we had a few brief sprinkles, but it cleared the air of the smoke. While waiting for dog to do his business outside last night, I was treated to quite the light show. Lighting taking up half the sky . . .

I woke up to beautiful sunshine this morning, and the air is so clear!

I also woke up to puddles in our basement stairwell and a husband who was concerned that the irrigation may have some issues. But after checking around, the ground is quite wet and I'd have to say it looks like there was a substantial rainstorm while I was sleeping . . .

Nothing in Kamloops, barely even a cloud.

I also give thanks for this ethos richness bestowed on us via British Colonialism.

Got wet and cold this morning watering garden plants when a downpour in Vernon happened. Very sudden, lasted 5 minutes but was soaked to the skin.

Now I am in the midst of a snowstorm on my deck with :cuss: elm seeds from a 50 foot high Siberian elm tree at the corner on next block …. It’s shedding like crazy into a blustery breeze. Deck completely covered, again, with those freakin’ seeds!! Every nook and cranny is filled with seeds including the screen door tracks. Yuk. Yech!

How i detest Siberian elms

Drove home from Vernon on the Commonage Road route hoping for dramatic weather.
None was to be had. Cloud formations adjusting their skirts to floating on by.
A smattering of rain lasting 35 seconds and sun.

I got a whole bunch of yard work done, then came in for a break and it poured. Love that! Good - unintentional - timing.
