From tomorrow into next weekend it's over to be sunny with temp's reaching almost 35c so I guess the rain we're getting right now is good in a way.

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - Organizers of Celebration of Light say the event will go on, despite the weather. Vancouver's Virgin Festival has been cancelled for the evening. The Whitecaps game has been halted. Over 5,000 BC Hydro customers are without power.
Showers rolled in along English Bay just after the dinner hour, soaking the crowd, but most are taking it in stride. One dad who drove his kids in from Cloverdale to watch the show and has built shelter with driftwood on the beach, and a tarp from his trunk, "We don't know what it's going to be like a little bit later, but I'm looking forward to it, I think everybody is looking forward to it, no matter what [the weather]."
Lifeguards were even clearing the water due to lightning concerns.
It's round two of the Celebration of light as South Africa takes the stage in the sky over English Bay. They will be trying to out-do Canada's Wednesday night performance.

DOnt forget, after long periods with no rain, oils from cars and trucks will now surface to the top of the road after a rain fall. So be careful out there, even with nice new tires, the centre of the lane can be slippery.

Yup, it's raining off and on in Vancouver (downtown). The rain stops but follows up with a massive downpour and it's so bloody hot and humidity right now.

Now THIS is an amazing sunset! Fireworks on the left, a comet McNaught in the middle, and lightning on the right.
Crazy! This is in Australia btw.
