After some crisp and relatively clear January days the Vancouver weather forecast calls for a 60 percent chance of flurries this week.

It’s been a rough start to winter but Toys’R’Us probably won’t sell out of sleds again because weather experts predict the snow likely won’t stick.

While there’s some sunshine to start the week, by Wednesday we will likely see a mix of snow and rain, according to Environment Canada.

For people wanting to ski on the North Shore, this should come as good news.

Vancouver usually sees one snow event per year. This could potentially be our second; however, experts say temperatures and amount of snow will not compare to December.

Environment Canada reports temperatures at the beginning of the week will see highs of 7°C before dropping 3°C on Wednesday, and -2°C overnight.
