After a cloudy and cooler July, August was amazing but it seems that September is bringing the real summer weather with high temperatures forecast to be in the low 30's until Sunday.
Today we had our hottest temperature of the year as we topped out at 31.3C well above our normal of 21C. Skies have been clear for the month with the exception of the 1st.

Our only precipitation for the month was on the 1st when we received a trace of rain.
Today was one of the very few sunny days in the month of April as well as our warmest day of the year at 18 C. The entire month has seen very few days with above normal temperatures. Wet snow was seen on two separate occasions the first being the morning of the 14th then again on the 19th. Both of those mornings we had lows of +2 C. On the 19th along with the wet snow we had some afternoon hail. April definitely brings interesting weather as we also seen our first thunderstorm on the 18th which was accompanied by hail.
After a couple of sunny pleasant days, clouds, showers and cooler temperatures will return by tomorrow and for the remainder of the week.
