Things may get a little blustery to start off the shortened work week as winds can gust up to 20 km/h starting this afternoon and into this evening.
And things are brightening up after a brief but dramatic weather event unfolded over parts of Metro Vancouver over the weekend.
Eastern areas of the region experienced lightning, intense pea-sized hail, and heavy rainfall, and a funnel cloud was also spotted swirling in the sky.
During the bout of unsettled weather, a rotating column of air resembling the early stages of a tornado appeared.
