Please rain or snow. I don’t care as long as we get some moisture.

It's supposed to start cooling down by Saturday and plenty of moisture for awhile.

Pretty sure the end-times are near when the hottest place in Canada today is where I am here in far Northern AB at over 30 C.

 

[RipsADrive]

Everything is on fire.

Hope everyone affected got out safely and has found a place to go.

 

[Mr Kot]

Most people were evacuated from my community. Everyone except some people staying to be thieves and me, who will stop the thieves.

Well just like when Fort Mac was burning. Been running around shutting in wells and blowing down facilities.

The picture is out my door at wapasu east. This was 4 pm 48 hours before we shutdown Back in 2016 in Fort McMurray

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

Hope everyone is safe. Love Alberta. This just seems... wrong.

 

[Da McBomb]

This wind just hasn't let up and making fire situation worse.

 

[Stoneman89]

This wind just hasn't let up and making fire situation worse.

That's probably the worst thing. And then when it stops in the evening for a bit, you're afraid it will suddenly change direction and come back the other way.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Supposed to be getting rain starting tonight and off and on for a couple days. Temps cooler as well, should help a bit.

The heat spell and winds hit just at the worst possible time after a dry winter, an early melt, and before any green had happened. Everything tinder dry.

 

[Beerfish]

Just pouring rain here on the southside, very very happy, it looks like not a long rain storm but at least it is coming down hard while it lasts.

Every bit helps, but I wish we could get one of those 2 days of grey with constant light rain. But this will be very welcome by all. Supposed to possibly be some thunderstorm activity in the next couple days as well. That would be great, without the lightning part.

Didn't get nearly enough. spot showers and local rain. One block getting dumped on and two blocks away was dry. Was driving around a bit and amazed how localized the pocket showers were. hasn't settled into anything significant yet. Lots of boom of thunder and not enough wet yet.

Gardens been all seeded for a week so we really want some daily rains now. heh

 

[bellagiobob]

Only a few drops out our way, with very little precipitation forecast for the next few days. And back up to the 30’s by the weekend. Wonderful.

 

[Beerfish]

Ugh, looks like the wild fire smoke has finally moved in. We had been lucky to escape it until now.

Morning sky is sandy pink. No nature hike for me today.

 

[Mr Kot]

looks like rain could happen this weekend, either way, cooler temps might help.

 

[UpHere]

My mom's hometown in NorSask is apparently being evacuated - haven't been there in years, if it remains unscathed i should bring the kids up there - didn't think i missed it but when its threatened, i kinda do

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

 

[Mr Kot]

Gonna start pouring rain here sunday through wednesday, just have to hold down for another few days,.

 

[Spawn]

Ugh this smoke is just f***ed.

 

[soothsayer]

So now we have a forest fire season . . .

 

[Beerfish]

So annoying that we get some nice days and smoke totally ruins it. I simply cannot last for long outside with this level of smoke.

 

[Mr Kot]

When you go into the smoke:

"YOU IN SILENT HILL SON"!
