Expect cooler, cloudy weather this weekend in Kamloops, Okanagan

A mix of sun and cloud, and maybe a little rain, is expected over the next week in the Okanagan and Kamloops.

The weather pattern is not as consistent in both regions as it has been for much of the summer, with Kamloops likely to have less rain than the Okanagan.

The Environment Canada forecast for Kamloops calls for a 30% chance of rain today, Sept. 9, then mostly a mix of sun and cloud through to next Wednesday with no rain expected.

High temperatures in Kamloops are expected to be 26 Celsius today, 27 C tomorrow then gradually fall to 20 C by Wednesday.

In the Okanagan, there’s also a 30% chance of rain today and again on Saturday followed by a 60% chance on Wednesday. The other days show a mix of sun and cloud.

Penticton, on the other hand, shows sun today with a 30 per cent chance of rain on Friday and Saturday.

Temperatures in the Okanagan are expected to reach 27 C today but drop gradually to 19 C by Wednesday.
