Metro Vancouver weather forecast
Often referred to as "Juneuary," the first month of summer in the Lower Mainland often sees powerful rainstorms and cold spells.
But Environment Canada's models show that May's above-average temperatures will likely continue through June. In fact, these conditions are expected to persist through to the end of summer, too.
