Synopsis for coastal BC.
The low pressure system that brought heavy showers and hail to the
lower mainland today will linger in the vicinity of the Fraser Valley
overnight. The circulation of cool moist and unstable air around the
low will provide a few showers or thundershowers but some breaks in
the cloud cover are expected - especially near the strait of georgia.
The low will weaken on Wednesday but variable weather conditions will
continue. Further north dry outflow winds have cleared skies on most
of the north and central coasts and across northern Vancouver Island.
Another fine sunny day is forecast tomorrow. Overnight low
temperatures will remain on the cool side especially where skies
clear overnight.
