We should be well into summer heat by now but we still are receiving the pleasant 70s and 80-degree temperatures. We reached 80 degrees here in Vancouver on Wednesday at 4 p.m., only the fourth time this month.
That pesky low that we were discussing ever since last weekend actually retrograded westward and left us with a clear and sunny day Wednesday. And the humidity was much lower.
What is left of the low will move inland today, and the forecast issued late Wednesday calls for marine clouds to move inland with the low, and maybe a few spatters of moisture or drizzle here and there. We may get nothing here in Vancouver, just like we haven’t all week.
Then high pressure rebuilds later Friday for a pleasant weekend. Highs will be near 80 degrees Saturday through Tuesday. Forecast models hint at much warmer highs July 27 and beyond to end the month. But that is a ways off so I won’t go out on a limb with that one. I have fallen off that limb too many times.
