The recent spate of above-seasonal temperatures on the West Coast will continue straight into the upcoming week, potentially threatening to topple the record for Canada’s hottest-ever reading in the month of September.
Temperatures in parts of B.C. are forecast for the mid-to upper-30s, and could soar close to the 40-degree mark in some areas during the opening days of September. With such heat occurring, folks may have noticed some trees have shed their leaves already, with a colour change, or will with this round of hot temperatures.
