How I feel being in BC when my brother tells me how warm it is in Toronto.

You would have felt the same way in Calgary today.

As someone in Toronto who detests the heat, I envy you.

So, you feel wet and sexy? That's why I got from your image.

Last night there was a crazy thunderstorm where I live (Okanagan), and my dad was texting me about how nice and sunny it was up where he is in Nunavut. I feel your pain.

This summer is the last straw. This is FUCKING BULLSHIT. I've waited all year for this, and the summer's already half past. (I consider Summer May-September.) I'm moving.

ReasonableRadio · 2 months

I fucking wish I was in a rainstorm. I can't go upstairs in my house here in Toronto from danger of heatstroke.

Nova Scotia has been just been one big pile of shit all month. 13 degrees today

It's ok, you should hit 70 hours of sunlight this month by the end of it :)

I love the mild weather. I hear about how hot it is right now in the east and I'm thankful I live in the west. If you're cold you can always put on a jacket, if you're too hot you can't take off your skin.

I felt the same until today, when the sun shone through and it was one of the nicest days on Haida Gwaii that I've experienced in 3 years!

LordNathan604 · 2 months

...but I like the rain!

penthehuman · 2 months

Nope, I just moved to BC from Ottawa, I'd much prefer the rain to 44°C with humidity.

Vipensan · 2 months

I'm from BC as well. Feel your pain.

As someone who has spent her life in Southern California, I'll trade you for BC any day. I saw the thunderclouds in Edmonton today. Moving there next month. Cant wait for rain!

TheIsotope · 2 months

That's how I feel when someone in Vancouver is telling me how great the Canucks are. I'm from Toronto.

JohnnyFootballHero · 2 months

When I moved to Vancouver a few years ago what struck me most is how casual Vancouverites are when it does rain.

There's a cavalier dismissal of the event, almost like a, "It's raining? I didn't even notice."

I feel I must master this level of indifference before I can become one of them.

quaintbucket · 2 months

Yeah that's about right.

MichaelTiberiusScot · 2 months

Because of an injury I sustained at the beginning of the month I haven't been able to play outside as much as I normally do so the shitty weather makes me feel so much better.

Quaytsar · 2 months

I wish I had rain. I'm far enough north that, even though my bedroom's window is on the north side of the house, the Sun shines through it every day, twice a day, in the early morning and late evening, when I'm trying to sleep. It sucks.

dorkofthepolisci · 2 months

It might not be sunny, but at least it only rains for an hour or so, and then its just gloomy (and your clothes are completely soaked, because it rained 5 minutes after you decided to walk to starbucks to buy coffee)

But at least we're not all melting from the heat right?

MrHax_ · 2 months

Stopped raining in Victoria but the forecast says it will start up again soon. Oh well, I love the rain and cooler weather.

jlanzobr · 2 months

I moved to London, UK in January.

I know that feel, bro.

rutabegaturnip · 2 months

I feel the same way in Halifax. No smog, just fog!

It's been gorgeous in St. John's all week: sunny, mid 20's. Welcome to bizarro world.

mamid · 2 months

A friend who moved from BC to somewhere in the hot south of the states started to bitch this week about how it is 101F or higher. We told her to move back here.

gavriloe · 2 months

Who are we kidding, the fact we are on reddit proves we haven't actually left our houses all day.

Hey, I'm not complaining. I'd rather this than it being hot.

cdnav8r · 2 months

Still better than living in Toronto... :P

I lived in a very rainy city most of my life (Vladivostok). I would give much to live in one again. Fuck Californian heat.

Resident of an interior town with a 20 mm rainfall warning. :(

It has been raining non stop here in Kamloops, usually it's dry this time of year.

Shomud · 2 months

I live in Kamloops and I much prefer the rain of late over the heat.

Trembelwick · 2 months

Hold on a min let me check outside...

Yup still raining, seems legit.

HunCity87 · 2 months

Kamloops here, this pic has been me for the past week. I'm not complaining though, could be 30* and sunny...hate the heat

dunegig · 2 months

It's ridiculous how much water they have to use to simulate rain and make it show up well on camera.

muchonacho · 2 months

It seems like some asshole out there has made it a daily ritual to point at the Chief.

Vnv37 · 2 months

I live near Vernon. Flood warnings for basically the past two weeks. The reason the rain is irritating is because the okanagan is known for being sunny and hot.

alive25 · 2 months

Just wait until winter and they get negative temperatures.

Jewllz · 2 months

It has been a very very wet spring in calgary too. But they do say in Vancouver you don't tan you rust.

fulltreesalchemist · 2 months

Newfoundland is pretty much the same as BC when it comes to rain.

Wizardis · 2 months

I personally prefer the Vancouver climate including the rain. Its just so hot and humid in Ottawa.

le_canuck · 2 months

Not going to lie, I was expecting a flood joke.

BradAusrotas · 2 months

London has been pleasant all weekend long. It cooled off on Friday to the perfect mid-twenties seasonal average and I've been digging it as much as possible before we get back to the 40 degree heat with enough humidity to choke a fish.

turbulentscar · 2 months

Just another day in Vancouver, did you know umbrellas are a fashion statement here?

CJMRTN12 · 2 months

Calgary too. Also, Toronto warm is disgusting. 40 degrees and so fucking humid.

newcomplaint · 2 months

It's not a nice warm. But I hate rain more.

morebinkies · 2 months

and no sun again today.

Ahundred · 2 months

The same dichotomy exists in the states, it is 10 in Seattle right now. This has happened three years in a row, we like to call it "Junuary." What eases the pain are these two things: Firstly, it's always blisteringly hot everywhere else in the country while we're sipping coffee and walking around in scarves and sweaters, and two, we kind of like wallowing in depressing weather in Seattle anyway. We're kind of melancholy if you haven't noticed.

proudcanadianeh · 2 months

At least you are not laying in a tent listening to yet another storm go over, where everything is so wet you have given up hope of a fire and feeling warm until you can get home.

the_cucumber · 2 months

Aw, that actually made my heart hurt a little bit. I feel super guilty never bringing a sweater out with me for "just in case" weather (in Montreal), meanwhile all my friends on both coasts are miserable :( I try not to rub it in though. We've all been there.

itzGeo · 2 months

i feel the same way...

Dancingtoes16 · 2 months

I grew up in BC often thinking the weather was shit.

And then I did my undergrad at MUN in St. John's, NL. You just don't know shitty weather until your school shuts down for a hurricane and a crazy blizzard in the same semester.

offensivegrandma · 2 months

He forgot to mention all the smog! I sure do not miss that!

illmatix · 2 months

yeah we're getting that same weather in Calgary. Although I don't mind it i just wish there were +15's everywhere through the city.

Today in Nanaimo, I went to work in the rain at 7am. The sun came out at around 9am and stayed up until the afternoon (hot Sunny day, 23 degrees). When I finished at 7pm (12h shift), the sky became cloudy again and I drove home in the rain...again.

CANADIANxPUNKx · 2 months

we had a thunderstorm today, wind knocked out my power, so i had to cook dinner on the bbq. went to the bathroom for 2 minutes, while i was gone it started PISSING rain and it put out the flame in the bbq. seriously, i need a vacation.

GuyFleegman · 2 months

TIL BC only includes Vic and lower mainland.

nix-xon · 2 months

Oh man, an appropriate use for this gif finally! It's been so over used lately I've started to get sick of it, but this actually made me laugh out loud! Well done!

CANADIANxPUNKx · 2 months

i hate the people here. they complain when we get snow (if we get snow), they complain when we get rain. they complain when we get sun. they fucking complain when we get overcast. nothing pleases you people. so just shut up about the weather already.

stoptryingtobecute · 2 months

wooooow someone from bc complaining about the cold? Come talk to me when you're in Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Alberta, OR ANY OTHER PROVINCE.
