The Metro Vancouver weather forecast called for a heat wave this weekend; however, Environment Canada says things are going to get even hotter.
According to a special weather statement issued on Monday, June 18th, the Lower Mainland will may reach a sizzling high of 32°C inland. Further, it adds that these temperatures are about 10 degrees above averages for the middle of June.
Of course, not all areas will experience this blinding heat. For other places, such as those along the water, highs may reach 25°C.
With that being said, it doesn’t look like the hot weather will subside through the course of the week. The forecast calls for Tuesday to reach an inland high of 31°C, as well as 26°C elsewhere.
Similarly, Wednesday will experience the same soaring temperatures, but may also see a few cloudy breaks throughout the day.
