Synopsis for coastal BC.

where the temperatures reached 14 and 17 respectively.  The highest

for the dry and very warm conditions is weakening.  This will allow
clouds from a frontal system currently over Oregon to spread into the
British Columbia coast this afternoon.  The threat of rain will

are developing along the outer coast.  Afternoon temperatures will be
several degrees cooler over the next couple of days.
