Environment Canada predicts warm, dry summer BUT…

Not so much for us on the west coast… However.. if you live almost anywhere else in the country – get ready for an extended season with your flip-flops!

Being a meteorology student, I’m always looking for information in regards to the climate and forecasts. The other day I was on internet, and this Vancouver Sun article caught my eye: http://tinyurl.com/43rrx8l

First of all, long range forecasts are very unreliable, and second of all, Canada has so many microclimates that a forecast for a whole country that is so geographically large would be very vague. Luckily, I work with one of the best meteorologists in the business…Mark Madryga…so we were able to get his two cents on this article.

PS – Mark didn’t end up doing my homework.
