Unusually for January, our temperatures have been slowly rising to where we’re in the double digits. 10, 11, 12C (50, 52, 53F). Quite comfortable and sunny, but I hope this doesn’t mean that we’re going to get storm slammed later!

We took advantage of the good weather for a ramble in the mountains to the south of us.

We didn’t climb too high in elevation because we wanted to stay below the snow line, but we were definitely high enough to enjoy the views.

The fresh air and nice weather were wonderful.
Happy Tuesday.
Absolutely beautiful Lynette! You just can’t beat fresh air 😌

Lovely. We have the same temperatures, but without the sunshine. Dull and dreary and damp. Doesn’t entice me outdoors.

Thanks, Jude. We were getting a lot of rain too but that has tapered off in the last three weeks or so. A bit of sun always makes such a difference.

Thank you very much, Anneli. We were in the mountains near Okanagan Falls below the snow line. It was such a nice day especially for January.

A gorgeous day to be out and about Lynette. +10 here yesterday. Welcome to the January thaw. We will pay for it later. Have a great Tuesday. Allan

Thanks, Allan. Agreed, beautiful right now but the long-term forecast is suggesting colder weather in about a week from now with more stuff falling from the sky. It is January, though. Cheers.

It sure is and very welcome. We’ve actually had relatively good weather for about the last three weeks now but I’m sure we’ll get a blast of something before spring!

Beautiful views, Lynette! I hope you guys don’t get slammed with really crusty weather. It’s unusually warm down here too with the low 70s this week, I’ll take it!

Thank you very much, John. 😊 It’s January so it wouldn’t be a surprise to experience some sort of poor weather between now and spring. Probably more overcast, rain and cold wind. Enjoy your weather!
