Tuesday is the first day of school and another hot one is on the way in Metro Vancouver, according to Global News meteorologist Mark Madryga.

“Well it looks like two more days, today and tomorrow, with this heat warning in effect, with afternoon temperatures likely near or above records from previous years. Yesterday we set records in Abbotsford, Agassiz, Chilliwack, Comox-Courtenay on Vancouver Island. Also out in the eastern Fraser Valley in Hope, Squamish, White Rock, [they all] set a record. And many more are likely to fall today as we hit the upper 20’s to low 30’s. Same idea tomorrow but again the smoke from Washington State and B.C. interior wildfires will hold. Things will start to cool a little on Thursday, and the smoke should start to clear then, too.”

An Air Quality Advisory remains in effect for Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley because of smoke from the wildfires.
