It may be hard to believe, but, two areas in the Cariboo were warmer than the rest yesterday (Monday).
Environment Canada Meteorologist Matt Loney said a pair of records were broken.
“Williams Lake had their highest August 25th temperature ever on the heels of the second highest they recorded. Yesterday’s high in Williams Lake was 31.4 which beat out a 29.5 recorded back in 2022. Tatlayoko Lake in the Chilcotin 33.5 was recorded yesterday beating 32.8 back in 1934.”
Loney said Quesnel had it’s second highest temperature when the mercury reached 33.0 and 33.9 was recorded back in 1915.
He noted we have 3 more solid days were we’re probably threatening records each day.
“And then things start to cool off a little bit by the weekend although temperatures will remain well above normal, high 20’s, close to 30.”
