KAMLOOPS — Warmer than usual temperatures over the weekend will continue into this week, but they won’t last for long.
Bobby Sekhon is a meteorologist with Environment Canada. He says temperatures could get as high as 9 C in Kamloops tomorrow (Nov. 27), but it wouldn’t be breaking the record of 12 C set in 1998.
“The system that we’re dealing with right now is actually bringing a lot of sub-tropical moisture and air into BC so the moisture is mainly dropping along the coast,” Sekhon says. “However, this is bringing warmer air into the Interior as well. With the influence of this tropical source, that’s why we’re seeing warmer temperatures this time of year.”
The average high temperature this time of year is 2 C, while the normal low is -4 C. Sekhon says for the whole month of November Kamloops is roughly 1 C higher than normal but that could change with close to double-digit temperatures mid-week.
