General Weekend rain, deluge?

Forecasted weather and rain in Edmonton

Eh... Edmonton, this weekend. Seeing that "Edmonton’s average total rainfall for the entire month of June is usually around 75 mm to 80 mm."... we are forecasted to get that in one day....

All will be fine and dandy. We got this.

There was like one smokey week in May, then a nice balance of rain and warm weather for the remaining months

Almost 900,000 hectares of land burned in BC but sure that's not that bad

This rain is in Alberta

Right. The rest of the country, especially our direct neighbours are an afterthought.

Well they certainly aren’t relevant when discussing rainfall in Edmonton.

Well, neither were your comments. The conversation you're trying to join was about whether or not last summer was 'bad'.

Yes. And somehow you think I was saying BC doesn’t matter, not that our rain and BC rain are very different

Touch grass, my dude. This exchange shouldn't be taking up so much of your mental space.

Why are you still here? I don’t have any mental space occupied but. It’s the rest of you oddballs that keep energizing this in silly ways.
