Three days ago I blogged about the heat dome the Interior of BC suffered under, five years ago in 2021. Well, it wasn’t only local people that suffered, the photo above shows what happened to my hostas as a result of the heat dome. We recorded a extraordinary temperature of 41°C (105°F), and the hostas that were growing immediately beside the walls of our house got even hotter, because of the radiated temperatures generated by the nearby walls. The heat caused their generally vibrant leaves to curl up and die along the edges.
I am currently painting another image of the phenomenon. The photo below shows how far I have gotten so far on the painting.
