Ducky 🇨🇦<p>Oh yay!!! All the elevators are getting replaced on the Expo line! <a href="https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/skytrain-expo-line-elevator-replacement-program" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">dailyhive.com/vancouver/skytra</span><span class="invisible">in-expo-line-elevator-replacement-program</span></a></p><p>Many of the Expo elevators are dog-slow. At 22nd Street, I frequently push the botton, then after about 15 seconds, wonder if I even pushed the button, are we moving?</p><p>Many of the Expo elevators are small enough that I have to scrunch the bike (by turning the wheel hard). Many (most?) you enter and exit by the same door, which means you have to back your bike out.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/skytrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>skytrain</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/yvr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>yvr</span></a></p>

Mark Ingalls<p>A thermal trough along the coast is helping to pull warm air from the B.C. Interior down into the Lower Mainland. The gradient will switch back to onshore with the cool down tomorrow.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/YVR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>YVR</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/BCstorm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BCstorm</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/weather" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>weather</span></a></p>
