It was very sunny and (too) warm for most of the day today, then the clouds rolled in a couple hours ago and we got ourselves a big, heavy rainstorm.

It’s actually been unusually wet and cool this month. An Okanagan July is usually pretty hot and dry – temperatures usually stay in and around the low-to-mid 30s (Celsius, that is), rarely dropping beneath the high 20s. This year, though, virtually every day has been a mix of sun and cloud, often rainy, with the temperatures pretty much staying in the mid 20s. I honestly can’t recall a time when July was ever this cool.

I suppose it’s too much to hope this nice weather pattern will continue into August, though.
