How warm will it get in your Metro Vancouver neighbourhood?

The Metro Vancouver weather forecast includes a couple of days of warmer-than-average temperatures ahead of a cooler, wetter pattern.

An unseasonably warm airmass continued to bring summer-like heat to B.C. on Monday, March 18, setting 23 new temperature records across the province, according to Environment Canada.

On Saturday, new temperature records were set in 40 areas across British Columbia, and another 38 records were broken across the province on Sunday.

V.I.A.'s Downtown Centre Weatherhood station in Vancouver shows a high of 15 C and a low of 5 C on Tuesday, with mostly clear skies and a few clouds expected during the day (see slide two).

Other areas of the Lower Mainland should see similar temperatures. For example, Port Coquitlam is expected to see a high soaring up to 16 C while Richmond's Bridgeport area should see a high of 14 C. 

Environment Canada says highs climbing up to 19 C are expected inland, too. 

Metro Vancouver weather forecast

Temperatures should drop closer to the seasonal average (10.3 C) on Wednesday, with a high of 11 C expected at Vancouver International Airport (YVR). Overnight lows should feel milder than the seasonal average (3.2 C), dropping to 7 C. 

There is also a 70 per cent chance of showers on Wednesday night, marking a shift from a long dry stretch to a period of wet weather. 

Environment Canada Meteorologist Derek Lee told V.I.A. in a previous interview that the incoming showers won't feel heavy for the remainder of the week and heading into the weekend. 

An organized rainstorm is expected to move into the region late Sunday, March 24, bringing substantial precipitation but it won't be "strong" or warrant a rainfall warning.

The wet pattern should continue into the following week until at least Wednesday, March 27.
