Okanagan Forecast: Changes Ahead This Week

Good morning ! Hope you had a great weekend.

No surprise here… another day starting with valley cloud. One of the reasons why this cloud is still around is because of the temperature inversion – at 5am this morning the weather balloon had these readings:

At 500m: -7C
At 1000m: -8C
At 1600m: -4C
At 2500m: 0C (so quite a bit warmer at this level!)

Breaking news from Canada and around the world sent to your email, as it happens.

Hard to say if and when this valley cloud will dissipate today, but there is hope that at least some areas will see clearing midday and be in the sun this afternoon.
Today’s Highs: -4 to 0C

As for this week, the upper ridge will start to weaken midweek. This will break down the temperature inversion, however a westerly flow will also bring cloud to all elevations Wednesday. Although no significant snow is expected, a slight chance of flurries is in the forecast Wednesday and Thursday.

Looking ahead, a stronger system will try and push in late Friday.
