Environment Canada's Jim Steele says June  in Prince George was a fickle month with flashes of hot and cold.
Temperatures were in the normal ranges:
Mean Monthly Temperature   13.8               Normal            13.3
Mean Monthly Maximum       20.4                 Normal            19.5
Mean Monthly Minimum          7.1                 Normal              7.0
The  warmest day was the  3rd, when a new record high was set with  a temperature of 33.28.  That broke the old rfecord of 32.8 that had been set in 1970.
There was also a new cold mark set.  the lowest temp was on the 24th with a low of 0.5 and that was just a tenth of a degree colder than the low mark  of 0.6  recorded in 1946.
Although last week's downpour may have  seemed like the most rain, overall, June was a little drier than normal.  Usually  Prince George gets  72.7 mm of precipitation in the month of June, and last month  we got 56.3 mm .  However,  more than a third of that  total monthly amount  fell  on the 28th and 29th, (22 mm) and  the 28th was the worst of the two with 11.1mm
