Record-breaking heat scorches Kamloops and area
Kamloops has always been a hot place in the summertime, so it’s hard to break a temperature record in July.
But that’s exactly what we did yesterday.
Environment Canada says the city hit 38.5°C yesterday, smashing a record of 37.2°C set 111 years ago.
Forecaster Matt MacDonald says we could break another long-standing record today.
