12 more temperature records broken in B.C. as hot weather persists
Another dozen temperature records have fallen in B.C. thanks to the ongoing spell of warm weather brought to the province by a ridge of high pressure. Monday was also the third day in a row that the hottest spot in Canada was in B.C. Osoyoos claimed that title when it hit 36.7 C on Monday afternoon, a new daily record for the Okanagan community. Other areas where the 12 temperature records were set included Trail, which reached 36.6 C, and Castlegar, which hit 36.4 C and broke a record set in 1918. Environment Canada says the "early season heat event" that brought 15 daily records on Sunday will persist in some areas of the province, including the South Coast and parts of Vancouver Island, the southwestern Interior and western parts of the Kootenays. There are 26 special weather statements in place for southern B.C., with daily high temperatures expected to remain in the high 20s to low 30s in some coastal areas Tuesday, reaching into the mid-to-high 30s in the Interior.
