If you grumbled about grabbing an umbrella and a raincoat to leave the house in New West today, don't fret: summer weather will be back upon us soon enough.
Mother Nature has decided to throw a couple more "Juneuary" days at us — including today, where the temperature sits at just 11 C with light rain. It's forecast to hit a high of just 13 C this afternoon, with light rain amounting to 1 to 3 mm by the end of the day, according to the Weather Network.
Tuesday looks similar, albeit warmer, with a projected high of 17 C and the likelihood of about a millimetre of rain.
Wednesday may sneak up to about 19 C, with a mix of sun and clouds — and after that, summer weather is expected to make a return, just in time for actual summer.
Prepare for a mainly sunny Thursday with a high of 23 C that feels like 25 C, and a sunny Friday with a high of 24 C that feels like 27 C.
It could get even warmer heading into next week, as Sunday's high is projected to be 25 C, feeling like 29 C.
Meanwhile, the air quality in New Westminster continues to be good, with Metro Vancouver's AirMap reporting a health index of 2, or low risk.
