Summer
Looks like summer is here. And for real. It was going quite slowly this year, especially compared to Europe. In mid-May temperatures were still in the 15°C range for the most part. These days seem to be a matter of the past, though.
This is the current forecast according to Environment Canada.

Of course, they are “lying” as far as the temperatures are concerned. Temperatures are measured at Vancouver Airport which is surrounded by water and thus quite a bit cooler that the rest of the Lower Mainland.
We’ve been talking about getting a portable air conditioner at home for this summer season ever since we moved in. I think we’re going to follow through on that pretty darn fast.
Our condo tends to get quite, how shall I say it, “warm and cozy”. Fortunately it’s at least East facing. This means early morning sun (it’s really hot in our 2nd bedroom as early as 6:30am), but at least it’s cooling off a little during the day. — Not enough, though. We definitely need some artificial “help” with the temperature in our place.
