While the Lower Mainland saw snowfall last night, the Metro Vancouver weather forecast calls for clear skies on Wednesday, Feb. 20.
Since the skies will be clear tonight, however, conditions will allow for some frigid temperatures. In fact, Environment Canada calls for temperatures to fall as low as minus one tonight — but with a wind chill factor of minus six.
Thursday, Feb. 21 is expected to start out sunny and clear, but the forecast calls for a 60 per cent chance of rain or snow in the evening. What’s more, the forecast calls for periods of rain or snow throughout the day on Friday, Feb. 22 as well as Saturday, Feb. 23.
In contrast, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday are expected to be dry and mostly sunny.
