It could hit 22 C or higher inland on Thursday and Friday.<\/p>\n
While clouds are certainly in\u00a0Vancouver’s forecast this week, there are\u00a0bright spots as well.<\/p>\n
And while the region is often hit by an autumnal storm by this point, Environment Canada meteorologist Morgen Shull says it’ll be another week without a heavy-duty weather system.<\/p>\n
Rainfall Tuesday evening<\/p>\n
Metro Vancouver will be mainly cloudy on Tuesday\u00a0(Oct 13)\u00a0but remain dry through the day, with highs around 14 C, Shull says. But\u00a0overnight, a system is expected to slide down the coast and over the region.<\/p>\n
That’ll bring showers with five to 10 millimitres\u00a0of precipitation, lasting into Wednesday morning. The majority of that will fall before sunrise, though.<\/p>\n
“I don’t think we’re looking at anything substantial as far as rainfall amounts, but we’ll definitely\u00a0see some moisture,” Shull says.<\/p>\n
By Wednesday afternoon, the city should begin to dry out with sun peeking through the clouds, foreshadowing the next two days.\u00a0A high of 15 C is forecast.<\/p>\n
Warm, sunny days leading up to the weekend<\/p>\n
The sunny skies will remain for a couple of days.<\/p>\n
“Thursday and Friday look absolutely stellar,” Shull says.<\/p>\n
Highs of 17 C are expected in Vancouver on Thursday, she says, with highs peaking even higher inland, up to 22 C. Friday will be more of the same, if not a degree warmer. For context, average highs this time of year are 14 C.<\/p>\n
A bit of high pressure and a southerly flow are the reason for the burst of warm weather, she explains. The heat may cause some fog Thursday morning.<\/p>\n
That said, overnight it will\u00a0still cool off, especially on Thursday, when temperatures are expected to hit 8 C.<\/p>\n
Friday likely won’t cool off as much, due to clouds moving in for the evening along with a new system.<\/p>\n
Wet weather returning Saturday<\/p>\n
“It doesn’t look like\u00a0anything substantial, but it does look like we’ll be getting wet again Friday night and into Saturday morning,” Shull says.<\/p>\n
While the system is expected to move quickly, it still might drop 10 mm by Saturday morning. While the sunshine is expected to return midday on Saturday, it won’t get as warm as it was the prior two days, with a peak of 15 C predicted.<\/p>\n
Sunday is forecast to start off clear, but cloud cover will likely move in later in the day.<\/p>\n
“There is a system that is approaching Sunday night,” Shull says. “That one looks like it is a little more intense.”<\/p>\n
Higher-speed winds and some higher amounts of precipitation are very likely, she adds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It could hit 22 C or higher inland on Thursday and Friday.
