Rainbow Park in the long-awaited sunshine Friday afternoon

Prince George, BC – Time to hang up the rain gear and pull out – a blue blazer, or two, or three…

Much to the relief of many, it’s time for some summer weather.  Environment Canada is calling for nothing but sunshine and heat in its five day forecast.

With temperatures stagnanting in the high teens over the past couple of weeks, we’re about to launch into uncharged territory, with the mercury set to climb to 28-degrees today, up to 30 tomorrow, and, so far, Monday is set to be the hottest day with a forecast high of a whopping 32-degrees.

We’ll still be baking Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday with highs of 27, 28, and 26, respectively, as that great globe in the sky continues to grace us with its presence until at least the end of the week.
