Spring has been an assortment of unseasonable weather so far in BC featuring lots of record-breaking wind and rainĀ and, unfortunately, it isn’t going to let up completely for the upcoming long weekend, but the road to it will be pretty nice.
After a mixed bag of weather on Wednesday, the remainder of the week will be filled with sun and partly cloudy skies potentially getting as warm as 18ĖC on Sunday according to The Weather Network.
The showers are forecast to return on Monday. Thankfully the forecast isn’t calling for too much rain.

Luckier folks in Ontario and Quebec will see temperatures hover between 20ĖC and 30ĖC, but in BC we’re going to see an average closer to 15ĖC over the next week.
It’s all due to a Pacific front that is approaching the central and north coast. It’s expected to hit on Sunday and Monday which will bring “widespread rain showers.”
The Weather Network
BC is currently in the middle of a storm that is bringing some strong winds to much of the province and it’s not expected to die down till Wednesday evening.
Checking in on the peak winds, pretty much as forecast and an extraordinarily high end event for the 2nd half of May. #BCStorm #BCWind pic.twitter.com/B2hglq69JH
