Okanagan weather: 30-degree heat and sunshine sticks around

The streak of sunshine and heat that returned over the weekend continues spilling over into the workweek.

Temperatures soar up into the mid-30s Monday afternoon as blue skies and sunshine stick around.

The mercury will fall back into the mid-teens Monday night with sunshine returning Tuesday as the valley bottom heats back up to around 36 C.

The upper ridge of high pressure pushing in the heat sticks around for the rest of the week, meaning skies will stay sunny and temperatures hot.
