Sounds like it's time for me to set up my portable AC.

How do forecasted increasing temperatures sound? I would imagine like a piece of uncooked bacon frying in a warm pan?

I too, like to predict the set up of a portable AC unit given the pending weather forecast, although I do not hear it. I just read about it.

If global warming gets you at least you’ll leave a nice corpse. That’s tactical hair if I’ve ever seen it.

Why is everyone excited?? I don't want to suffer!

It’s not a heat dome. Temps will go down at night. 30 is not crazy hot. It’s summer

I sweat my balls off in 30 degrees in doors. It's impossible to sleep until it's very late when it heats up in the summer. RIP my sleep.

RIP my sleep

…and your balls by the sound of it.

Yes but my house absorbs the heat in the day and at night my house feels like a furnace. 30 is uncomfortable for me. Low 20s is where it's at.

Temps will go down at night

Not for people that live in mobile homes, trailers, or poorly insulated houses. They soak up the heat during the day (kind of dome-like effect essentially) and by the time they even slightly cool down, it’s morning of the next day and they heat up again. Cycle repeats lol

The vast majority of housing in Vancouver was not built to deal with 30 degree heat

PM ME UR SUNSETS

Because it's the first hint of real, hot summer where it's warm enough to go to the beach lol.

Every house/unit needs to have ac by law.

HanSolo5643

Took long enough for the warm weather to arrive.

MindlessYoung4104

YES… and the BC Government has told you repeatedly that this is coming our way. So what have you done and what has your municipality done to prevent what happened in our last heat wave?

Difficult_Counter449

Neighbors died aye. I am prepared as much I can be alone for those around me.

trek604
