Return To More Seasonal Weather
That's right, just a small "hiccup" in the weather today compared to what we have been experiencing the past several days by way of higher than normal temperatures and dry weather. So, what's causing this? Well, the upper ridge which has been so dominant the past few days is beginning to flatten out and move south. In its place, a weak trough of low pressure is impacting the coastal regions of BC first and then pushing into the interior.
So, more cloud, cooler temperatures and some light shower activity will be the weather of the next couple of days. By mid week, it appears that the ridge will rebuild and we'll see a return to warmer and drier weather once again.
Taking a look at the upper level animation above we see a weak upper level trough pushing its way through the coast today, bringing cloud and light precipitation to BC. As we head into Monday the upper level flow goes more zonal, but stays unsettled through Tuesday.
