Darn right something's not right. Although it's just been raining like the dickens here in the valley, the white stuff is adding to the 2 meter snow base at Silver Star.... to bad the lifts stopped running almost 2 weeks ago! A 1000 meters of elevation changes everything. You gotta love the Okanagan.

Ill be wonderin about this Geo-engineering tangient if it snows in august. we should be used to this by now!
the other question i have is, "do we really need "weathermen and women" they are way off 90% of the time anyway. IMO.

Well I'm in BC now, but I can relate with all you semi-northern Alberta types. I lived in Cold Lake for many years and can remember that one July (or perhaps June, it was many moons ago) there was reportedly still a chunk of ice floating around in the middle of the lake. I used to swim in that lake! Nothing like a dip in those refreshing waters to make you realize just how 'alive' you are.

and again wake up to snow. Yes I realize could snow in July but enough already.

Sigh, still snow up on Silver Star but the lifts stopped turning a month ago and I should have the garden in by mid-week here in the valley.
