What a gorgeous sunset Sunday evening. Did you see it? Beautiful sunrays shining down upon us. At the same time, brisk west winds were blowing and the temperature dropped to 70 degrees as the sun went down. What a relief it was to feel air that was cooler and with less humidity.
Monday offered plenty of sunshine, with a few scattered, ominous-looking clouds. It was still somewhat humid but only around 55 percent compared to 70 percent Sunday. With the sunshine, temperatures quickly bounced back into the 80s.
Vancouver set records for the warmest overnight low temperature for several dates. This occurred on Friday, Saturday and Sunday mornings. Friday, the low was 67 degrees, warmer than the record of 63 degrees in 2002; on Saturday, it was 69 degrees, a degree higher than the old record of 68 degrees set in 1956; on Sunday, the low was 67 degrees, compared to 62 degrees in 2011.
So it likely felt uncomfortable to sleep the past few days for those without air conditioning. That was hopefully taken into consideration for your grumpy mood on Monday.
