| dc.description.abstract | In 2023, B.C. experienced record warm annual, summer and fall temperatures and well below-normal annual precipitation. Snowpack was generally below-normal through the winter, rapidly decreasing to well below-normal by June 1st due to early snowmelt across the province. In late summer and fall, severe drought conditions were experienced nearly everywhere in B.C., coinciding with record warm temperatures and below-normal precipitation. The trend in annual mean temperature in B.C. is positive and can be distinguished from natural variability over the analyzed period, 1950-2023. Annual precipitation, however, exhibits no significant trend over that period. | |
