A few of my Friends on Facebook are in Vancouver and I can't
help but feel s-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-oo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o
sorry for you!
Meanwhile, look @ Prince George? Like we deserve this.!
It seems like the sunny-England type weather has been lasting this way forever.
But as a disclaimer, I must say that when it does rain here in the Interior and as far North as we are, it is not the 'sprinkle effect' that the Lower Mainlanders are so used to.
When it rains here it just does not threaten: it really does rain!
With real droplets that 'smack' on the pavement and the air becomes aerated with with the instant dew point humidity hanging in the air. You can actually smell the fresh rain.
Sometimes if it rains at night, the freshly watered land and greenery releases an aromatic fresh bouquet of beautiful release from its previous stagnation. (Pardon my lack of poetic prose at this time.)
And the night is another thing. Often one can see feint shadows and scatterings of light high on the far northeast horizon as late as 11 PM, only to see the etched markings of the beginnings of a sunset a few hours later on a different part of the sky.
Right now I feel quite spoiled by it all. Could only stand wearing a T till 2 PM before I was shirtless in the baking sun.
When I return to Vancouver I will be bringing this good weather with me!
And I realize I should stop being such a softie. And maybe this doesn't help I think now as I try to imagine sitting across from someone on a diet while I 'talk while my mouth is full ' packing down some cool mouth watering ice cream. Talking with a full mouth is rude.
edit: and come to think of it, yes, it's a beautiful thing this weather because actually with a depressed economy, unemployment, crime and poor air quality the predominant talking points here, it's a fantastic thing to happen for the people here to experience some nice weather. After all, the first rumblings of winter begin in late , late October and winters can be typically long and harsh. Cannot forget th@.
