    I don't think there's enough humidity here for the advancing cold front to condense out of the atmosphere....unless it brings it's own.

    If it did bring its own our previously parched atmosphere is probably absorbing it.

      It was weird here this morning 22C and 90% humidity at 8am, took a while for the sun to finally burn through the humidity, it was almost like a dense fog. Then for a few minutes before the sun won out the fog was coming in waves, blowing in from the south. Got to 37C around 2pm where its stayed.

      Quite the change in Alberta by all accounts. The old frost pocket where I lived hit a crazy high of 35.1C on Friday - very rarely did we get to 30C there. Today it's 11C at 4pm, low forecast for tonight is 3C. Now that's more like the weather I'm familiar with at that location!

        In about 1991, we were combining lentilsin August with temps hitting 100F, I had to make a trip to Yorkton that night. When I returned 2 days later, the crops froze with minus 5 showing on our recording thermometer. What a swing! Those harvested lentils were the only good lentils in the districtthat year.

          I remember that as well
          It will be chilly here as well but should be ok this time . The next one in 10-12 days may be the one to watch

            1991, or 1992? My first crop was in 1992. Wheat froze bad. In August.

              92. Was my first crop as well. 50 bu canola went 17. Pepper seeds was an eye opener for a young punk starting out. Good thing costs were manageable. Today would be auction sale time.
