From my experience, the weather forecast doesn't get reliable until a few days before, but it doesn't hurt to look now and see how it changes. I agree - sunny would be nice! Ironically, it was never anything but sunny and clear in the two Kumoricons I went to before. XD

Sunny is nice. Sunny and 80+ not so much.

Yeah, it can get hot if it's 80+ degrees out, and it often is - but thankfully there's a lot of shade in the park too, so it doesn't completely ruin everything. :D

Being close to the river helps also. I'm hoping for partly overcast myself, but even if it's sunny, there tends to be a pretty pleasant breeze coming off the river (or, I assume it's from the river).

How about cloudy and warm, but not 90 degrees "warm".

I'm hoping that it will stay in the low 70s, and have some rain.

It was sunny and 70 to low 70s here today - I'm kind of far from Vancouver, but it would be GREAT if it was this weather for Kumoricon. :D

Right now the forecast I'm looking at says mid to high 80s for Kumoricon, but from what I've seen, the forecast tends to overestimate the temperature, so hopefully it is a bit cooler by the time the convention rolls around.

www.weather.com - Th & F mid80s to high50s, rain @ 10%; S, S, & M 70s to mid50s, rain @ 40, 20, & 10%
www.accuweather.com says very similar things, with the most significant difference being that Saturday may have a couple of thunderstorms.

Whew, that does sound pretty hot to me! O_O

I remember that the heat was awfully vicious last year and the year before that so I have no doubts that it'll be fairly bright outside.

Just be sure to drink plenty of water as you're walking around, and I also bought a pretty folding fan at the steampunk vendor's booth last year and it really came in handy!
