Default Dare we think it?

It's only tuesday...but are we allowed to get excited about the forecast for this weekend?



After the junk weather we've had for so long, it sure would be nice to get some sunshine. Here's hoping I didn't jinx it.

Man, I could have sworn it said 28 for Sunday when I looked this morning. Meh, 25 is pretty freakin tight too.

If I believed in superstition I'd be sending a truckload of bad voodoo your way.

I'm thinking it should be fine. I'd say if everything holds until Thursday morning we're in the clear. I'm going to make a prediction and say we get a little rain in there, but nothing more.

Is this a jinx? Or a reverse jinx? I'm confused now.

Down the road about 200km in Osoyoos where I live they have us forecast for high's of 32-33 degrees on Friday and Saturday. My Boss just bought a new Ski Boat and is getting it just in time for the weekend. He told me to take Friday off so we could go golfing in the morning and than wake boarding in the afternoon. Being in the old boys club at work rules!

Yeah it sounds like I'm spending most of the weekend golfing/boating. Having a girlfriend with rich uncles also rules.

Hitching yourself to rich people is always a good idea! I made sure to pick inlaws who were a lot wealthier than my family.

Similar forecast to Victoria for this weekend. Looking for our first 20+ degree day of the year. Forecast says 21, 24, 23, 21 for Thursday-Monday. Sounds good to me.

Me too. Heading to Mclean for the weekend. Some poor carwash owner is going to hate me on Tuesday morning.

I dread the thread that will be posted Tuesday morning with a link to a Herald story about all the yahoos that trash our OHV areas. Hopefully I stay within my boundaries and don't get yellow squared by ken again.

I picked up a big box of garbage bags the other day. Anybody that forgets theirs can stop the green Jimmy being furiously driven through the mud with a rotti sitting in shotgun and hit me up for a couple.

I've gotta coach a kids team in a long weekend tournament.

CP Parents, how do you feel about your kid's soccer coach slamming back a couple of cold ones from the sidelines?
