Warm weather returns this week in Kamloops

In spite of this past weekend's below seasonal temperatures, it appears summer isn't over in Kamloops just yet.

The city can look forward to temperatures rebounding into the 30s this week with the possibility of some midweek showers, but otherwise, lots of sun.

Environment Canada says clouds will become a mix of sun and cloud this morning, Aug. 31,  with west winds at 20 km/h, a high of 25 Celsius and a low of 14 C expected.

Tuesday should see a mix of sun and cloud with a high of 30 C and a low of 14 C.

There is a 30 per cent chance of showers on Wednesday with a high of 28 C and a low of 12 under a mix of sun and cloud.

The heat continues on Thursday and Friday with highs of 31 C and lows of 15 C and 14 C respectively, again under mostly sunny skies.

The weekend looks pretty nice at this point, with a high of 30 C expected Saturday and 26 C on Sunday, with lots of sunshine.

Normal temperatures for this time of year in Kamloops are highs of 25 C and lows of 11 C.

I have been looking for news in the South Okanagan - SImilkameen for 20 years, having turned a part time lifelong interest into a full time profession. After five years publishing a local newsletter, several years working as a correspondent / stringer for several local newspapers and seven years as editor of a Similkameen weekly newspaper, I joined iNFOnews.ca in 2014. My goal in the news industry has always been to deliver accurate and interesting articles about local people and places. My interest in the profession is life long - from my earliest memories of grade school, I have enjoyed writing.
As an airborne geophysical surveyor I travelled extensively around the globe, conducting helicopter borne mineral surveys.
I also spent several years at an Okanagan Falls based lumber mill, producing glued-wood laminated products.
As a member of the Kaleden community, I have been involved in the Kaleden Volunteer Fire Department for 22 years, and also serve as a trustee on the Kaleden Irrigation District board.
I am currently married to my wife Judy, of 26 years. We are empty-nesters who enjoy living in Kaleden with our Welsh Terrier, Angus, and cat, Tibbs.
Our two daughters, Meagan and Hayley, reside in Richmond and Victoria, respectively.
