The Cariboo region saw its hottest day of the current warm stretch yesterday.
The region has been well above normal being anywhere between six to eight degrees more, making it feel more like summer.
Meteorologist, Dave Wray says the record was just barely missed.
“Williams Lake hit 25.6 yesterday, and the record for that day was 26.9, so about a degree cooler.” says Wray.
“Quesnel was 0.3 degrees off the record. They got 26.9 yesterday; old record 27.2, so very close there as well.”
As for today, Wray says the records will be around the 26 to 27 degree mark, but will probably be two to three degrees cooler.
The Cariboo will continue to see temperatures go back to around seasonal as we enter next week with potential showers on Wednesday, May 15th.
