It's been awhile since I participated in Skywatch Friday.
These photos were all taken in downtown Vancouver, BC on Wednesday, July 12, 2023.
The weather here has been very hot and we are in drought at a Level 4. I learned that on the news recently. Here is a map of British Columbia. All of the areas in red are at drought Level 4.
Vancouver, BC is just north of the border from Seattle and definitely in the red zone. As many of our neighbours in the USA will know, we've been having a lot of wild fires all over Canada and BC is no exception. It makes air quality in some places very bad but thankfully we are not suffering the thick haze and smoke we had 2 years ago (or maybe it was last year). I can't keep track any more because this type of thing is sadly now a regular occurrence.
I wish you a wetter summer or winter wherever you are living and that you stay safe.

Hello,
Looks like a nice day for a walk. Pretty views of the sky and the city.
Take care, enjoy your day!
Beautiful cityscape. I haven’t seen such clear blue skies for a while but only small patches of blue from time to time. I’m praying the hovering rain clouds over my country be carried to your place, not only to ease drought level but also to distinguish wild fires. Take care.

Our skies have been very hazy from the fires in Canada (Ontario and Quebec). They seem to be better blue now. You're lucky to have such glorious skies!
Beautiful blue skies and lovely to see some of the city as well. I hope all is well Diane
