Here it is today, we have reached the end of the first week of September and with no surprises on the horizon. The weather outlook is rather benign as the main autumn storm track remains across British Columbia. That keeps us dry and temperatures seasonal and the hot stuff stays away.
One of these Canadian weather systems moves across southern British Columbia today and will usher in a marine push with low clouds this morning and gradual partial clearing as the day wears on. That keeps us in the 70s. Higher pressure briefly builds inland on Friday and Saturday with highs creeping to 80 degrees and a little beyond that. A pleasant way to start the weekend.
Another weather system moves once again across British Columbia on Sunday and Monday with some cloudiness and perhaps some scattered mist or drizzle Monday morning but overall, the dry conditions prevail. The Washington Coast may pick up a few hundredths of an inch with sprinkles or drizzle but that’s about it.
The average mean temperature so far in September in the Vancouver area is exactly normal. The first month that has been off and running that isn’t above average for a change. Can we expect more of this weather to continue? At least for a few days, maybe longer. There are some hints we get a bout of warmer weather around mid to late month but that is too far out. Remember the old game, pin the tail on the donkey? That would sum it up.
