And my Vancouver son’s answers are:
Q: Did you guys officially break the record for continuous days of rainfall for Vancouver?
A: The day we would have tied the record, it stopped, but just for that day... then it started raining the next day for a week. It's like it was taunting us with the possibility of a record, then pulled it at the last minute and said, "You still gotta suffer."
Q: Is it still easier to keep dry than to keep warm?
A: Yeah, it is. With a hat on, I don't notice it really aside from stepping around big puddles. Standing outside in the wind in Montreal, a hat doesn't really have the same effect. : )
