Even though Weatherhood predicts partly cloudy morning skies for the coming seven-day period, area residents have likely noticed that we have gained back more than the hour of morning daylight given up with the switch to daylight savings time.
The National Research Council of Canada (NRCC) website details that on the final morning before 2024’s “spring forward” of our clocks, sunrise in Sechelt was at 6:38am Pacific Standard time.
Since that date, daylight has been arriving about two minutes earlier each day. Although day break slipped back by an hour March 10, Weatherhood reported the first flickers of daylight in Coast skies at 5:51 a.m. Pacific Daylight time on April 30.
For Tuesday, April 30, Weatherhood predicts a high of 12C in Sechelt with a chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.
