As the day closes to an end, assuming that there will be no rain on Wednesday, July 31, 2013 (PDT), then Tuesday, July 30, 2013 (PDT) will be the sunniest day ever in "Raincouver" since 1953, according to Environment Canada. The dry spell had been on-going for 33 days straight now, which is 388 hours of sunlight. The city is expected to obtain 400 hours of sunshine in all this month.

Environment Canada meteorologist David Jones said that if rain will still not be gracing Vancouver on Wednesday, July will also be the driest month ever recorded.

"So the weather pattern is changing, so the streak is definitely in jeopardy as we head towards the weekend," Mr Jones told CTV News.

In another interview with The Globe and Mail, Mr Jones said that the recent weather records were taken from the Vancouver airport.

"Vancouver - the airport, anyway - has never gone an entire month without at least a trace of rain recorded, that a month with only a trace of rain on record has happened twice before, but this July so far we have not even had a trace reported at the airport."

There were drops of rain reported from the North Shore but as far as the Vancouver International Airport is concern, the sun was still casting its dry spell.

The extended summer was definitely a good time for the outdoorsy type and those who love to laze sexily along beach shores.

However, the dry spell, if it persists, poses threat to the southern half of the province. Wildlife Management said that there will be great risk for extreme fire among the wildlife areas covering the region.

In fact, crews near Pitt Lake were still in the process of putting off a nine-hectare wildfire near the lake. Although the situation was under 100 per cent control, the crew was instructed to watch out for possible 70-hectare fire near Okanagan Falls.

Reports taken since July 28, 2013 showed that there were already 91 active wildfires and 21 fires just starting around B.C.

People in "Raincouver" were now confused whether to pray for rain on Wednesday, or to top the next record to be topped if indeed sun continues to shine for the following day - the longest dry spell record of 58 days in 1951.
