Anybody else altering their summer plans based on weather? Lytton, B.C., has broken the record for the hottest temperature ever recorded in Canada for a third straight day, hitting a scorching 49.6 C on Tuesday.
The latest record was broken as a historic heat wave continues to scorch Western Canada, leading to a spike in sudden deaths in B.C. and dangerous wildfire conditions.
Lytton, a village in the Fraser Canyon located about 260 kilometres northeast of Vancouver, also saw record-breaking highs of 47.9 C on Monday and 46. 6 C on Sunday. Before this week, the highest temperature ever recorded in Canada was 45 C in Saskatchewan in 1937.
"It is so incredibly intense," said Bernie Fandrich, a Lytton resident and president of the local chamber of commerce. "It's a perpetual oven door open, and it's just too hot."
The community pool is closed due to technical issues and people have only a few air-conditioned coffee shops where they can seek refuge. Fandrich said the streets of the small village, which at last census count had under 250 residents, are virtually deserted.
"People are indoors and mind you, Lytton is usually not the centre of the universe anyway. But that's even less so now," he said, speaking to CBC Radio on Wednesday.

My plan is to visit the Oregon coast. I'm sure there will be a lot of people inland that will also be heading to the Oregon coast, but I have a friend of over 50 years that has RV parking at his house.

Over the past week, I had water dripping down my windshield of our 2015.
I checked the roof and even under the A/C cover, but didn't know what I was looking for.   Confused

soooo...online I go...

Ok, now that I've been "educated" via research, I'm now aware that our Coleman Mach A/C units have a little Condensate Pump that pumps the water out a tube.  But, something's not doing its job; either it's:

1. Plugged line
2. Bad float
3. Bad pump

Anyone find that this lines just need to be blow out from the bottom up on occasion?  I'm afraid to be very aggressive...who knows what would happen these days. LOL

Maybe it's safe and many have done it, so thanks in advance.

hey All,
  I t seems that I have no workable sewer host at the moment. I am looking for a 90 deg adapter that will attache to the powered dump valve then turn 90 deg allow for a valterra connector to exit the bottom of the coach.

I've seen and read a few threads, but most of the links are dead. I see a 45 deg one on Dupree's site. And what's the difference between the adapter and the HOSE adapter on their site?

Any hint?

Thanks!

I've noticed a few places where the foam undercoating has been knocked off.

My inclination is to buy the high-expansion foam at Home Depot and then spray it black, but not sure if it's durable enough or compatible.

Anyone know what Newell uses?

Thanks

Anyone on here?

We may have to store our Newell where electricity is on a timer, so i have a couple of questions:

1. Can i plug the 120V compressor in without going through the coach electrical system?
2. How long can it remain without electricity?
3. Can i open the door without air?  It is mid-entry.

Thanks,
Chris
