It’s going to feel more like Summer than Spring as we head into the weekend in the Cariboo.
Environment Canada Meteorologist Brian Proctor said the region will experience well above normal temperatures for this time of year.
“Starting off on Thursday (May 9) are normal temperatures are about the 18 degree mark and the overnight lows of plus 3 and our record temperature for that day is 25 so we’re not looking for Thursday to be record temperatures. For Friday we’re looking at a forecast high of 27 and the record is 22.8 for Williams Lake and Quesnel.”
For Saturday Proctor noted records are more likely to be broken as the forecast high, at the present time, for Williams Lake and Quesnel is 26.
The previous record high in Quesnel was 20.7 in 2009 and Williams Lake 22.8 in 1969.
100 Mile House should just set a record on Saturday as the previous high in 2013 was 27.1 and the high is expected to reach 28.
Proctor added for Sunday and Monday the Cariboo will be just above normal and by the time we get to Tuesday and Wednesday temperatures will be back to where they should be.
