The cold temperatures Vancouver has been experiencing in the last week may be here to stay.
Global BC meteorologist Michael Kuss says the average temperature for the period from Dec. 1 to Dec. 12 at YVR was 1.8 C.
He says if YVR averages around -3 C between Dec. 13-18, which it should, the average temperature for the month will be near zero.

The coldest December on record was in 1984 with an average temperature of 0.6 C.
“We have a bit of a warm-up in the forecast for next week, but if it doesn’t hold we could be flirting with the coldest December on record,” said Kuss.
