Mountain Weather Forecast

Spring Showers

The upcoming Victoria Day weekend is looking very unsettled across BC. A series of upper features will bring continuously spotty, convective weather to most of the interior until Sunday, when a ridge tries its best to give us a sunny break but a frontal system coming across the Pacific has another plan in mind. While there is no expectation of severe weather coming our way, most of the province can expect highly variable conditions throughout the weekend.

The 500 mb charts depict an upper trough exiting southeastern BC today, with a weak default ridge building in over the coast behind it. The ridge is short-lived and is almost immediately replaced by a series of upper disturbances that will bring showers to the province tonight, Saturday and Saturday night. On Sunday we see a partial clearing across the province, before a low moves in from the Alaskan Gulf and brings rain to the northwestern part of the province Sunday night and Monday.
