It’s 19 C at the Edmonton Blatchford weather station Saturday morning, with 3 km/h winds from the east, southeast.

Did we wake up in Brasília? There is beach volleyball, food, frolic and fun sprinkled across the city, where we are in for a high of 28 C, with morning risk of showers, maybe even a thunderstorm to sweep out lingering wildfire smoke.

The recent wet weather relief has also resulted in sightings of Edmonton’s most popular snake, the western red-sided garter, spotted sidewinding through river valley trails. And of course, our urban jungle is not without its rain-fostered mosquitoes, triggering a health authority warning to cover up and use bug spray to shield ourselves from that so-2003 virus threat, West Nile.

The damp collusion has also bred an abundance of dragonflies, helping to gobble up so many blood-suckers. And, dare I say, mosquito-seeking bats have been witnessed whipping around these parts, too. Bless all the winged, pest-consuming creatures!
