How would you guys rate Vancouver's climate in 2017?
I'd give it a "B-". We had a snowy February, a very wet spring and basically no rain during summer.
Keep in mind, the station for Vancouver is located at the airport which is situated right next to the water, and, consequently, doesn't allow for much spread in temps, especially during the summer where a light seabreeze can keep temps more than 10C cooler when compared with places just a few km inland.
For that reason, I've also added in Abbotsford, a major city ~75km(45mi) inland from Vancouver, which has more spread in extreme high/low temps. Would you guys prefer Abbotsford's climate in 2017 to Vancouver?
