Ans: Earthquakes occur on faults - strike-slip earthquakes occur on strike-slip faults, normal earthquakes occur on normal faults, and thrust earthquakes occur on thrust or reverse faults. When an earthquake occurs on one of these faults, the rock on one side of the fault slips with respect to the other.
September Weather in Vancouver is mild and comfortable.: Allan Fotheringham once called Vancouver the Canadian city with the best climate and the worst weather. September has the potential to show visitors great Vancouver weather -- mild and clear; however, dull and grey is another possibility. 1  Average September temperature: 14.4ÂºC / 58ÂºF. 2  September average high: 18.3ÂºC / 65ÂºF. 3  September average low: 10ÂºC / 50ÂºF. 4  September is not so rainy in a city famous for its rain.
Re: Vancouver end of April/beginning of May Aug 20, 2009, 5:51 PM I wouldn't change your plans because the weather is so inconsistent during those times, while we know that May is statistically a tad drier than April (and April a tad drier than March, and so on), it's hard to know week by week what to expect.
