The weather is BC is never ... EVER .. predictable. That's my disclaimer.

Having said that .. if you're here for 3 weeks in September, you should get at least 2 weeks of solid climbing weather. Unless it is a really bad year.

As for quantity .. there is enough bouldering is Squamish for consecutive summers of climbing. In 3 weeks, you won't come close to tapping the potential of the area. Add in some sport climbing and you'll have a great vacation.

I'd second everything that he said ^^^ . Have you looked at the weather charts and stats on this site.

The first half of September tends to be drier, except this year when it rained a lot and the last half of September was great.

Thirded. ^ ^ ^

September is usually pretty good though, rain comes when it pleases... And it pleases often here.
