The Remembrance Day statutory holiday is nearly here, with Vancouver facing varied weather leading up to the event. The holiday falls on a Tuesday, so the long weekend depends on whether Monday is taken off.
Friday starts with typical Vancouver weather: a mix of sun and rain, with temperatures reaching a high of 11˚C and dipping to 6˚C overnight.
Saturday is expected to bring mostly sunny skies and a high of 11˚C, though temperatures will be cooler at night, around 4˚C.
Sunday shows mixed conditions again, with sunshine during the day turning to rain by night.
From Monday through Thursday, including Remembrance Day on Tuesday, persistent rain is forecasted. Daytime temperatures should stay between 10˚C and 11˚C, while nighttime lows will average about 6˚C.
Environment and Climate Change Canada has not yet provided estimates for total rainfall during this period.
"We recently spoke to an ECCC meteorologist about winter weather conditions and when Vancouver might even see some snow."
Stay prepared for a wet week, especially if you plan to observe Remembrance Day outdoors.
Author's summary: Vancouver will experience mixed conditions including sun and rain before Remembrance Day, followed by a predominantly rainy week with temperatures around 10–11˚C.
