Fire Weather Forecast
Friday, July 3, 2020 at 1:50PM SYNOPSIS:
(Thursday-Friday) As the upper low settles in over Vancouver Island today further bands of clouds and showers are expected especially for the Fraser zone but there is considerable variability in the pattern, notably east Vancouver Island which will see a mix of clouds/sun and little or no showers. Tonight, and tomorrow a heavier band of cloud rotates over the Island bringing more showers or periods of steady rain and then the pattern reaches the southern mainland zones later Friday afternoon. Northern sections are out of the wet pattern and will see sunshine and reasonably warm temperatures today and tomorrow.
OUTLOOK:
(Saturday-Monday) The upper low opens up into a broad trough on Saturday with the heaviest clouds and rains moving away into the interior of the province. Coastal zones emerge into a mix of sun and clouds—and it might be the first dry weekend in the last two months! Sunday, with a weak ridge overhead, expect another sunny day and warmer temperatures. It does not last very long however as by Monday afternoon another low moves in with a return to clouds and showers.
