As my vacation in Kamloops continue, I went to the amazingly beautiful Riverside park & water park.. around 10-11am, it was only around 15 to 17 degrees.. of course that did not stop the brave little ones from jumping in and getting wet!
Here at home it is a bit colder than that near 12 to 14 degrees with showers, here in Kamloops we also have some on and off showers and breaks of sunshine, as of 2:45pm right now it is a nice 19 degrees. Now compared to average here in Kamloops it's actually below normal.. average temps here in the interior desert is 24-26 degrees this time of year. But in St. John's 19 is above average as we should be near 16 degrees. Kamloops and St. John's will be blow average in temperatures for next few more days, at least until end of the work week! but slow and steady wins the race! right? A warm up is coming starting for the weekend, in st. john's temperatures will get back into the high 15's to low 20's and yes, that is with sunshine! and here on my vacation, temperatures starting on the weekend and continue for 7 days will be near record warmth with highs into the mid and high 30's, with a touch of humidity and plenty of sunshine. So far, I have been here a week and 2 days.. and I have yet to go swimming! because 10 the water levels are still very high, and 20 the water is still cold! I have yet to enjoy many hot days, hottest so far since I been here is 28 degrees. which of course to east coasters is hot.. but here in the desert 28 degrees with low 20% humidity, it feels nice, warm and comfortable, but not overall hot, like I like it! maybe the 35,36 & 37 degree heat for next week will be the top before I return back on air for Monday!

Great to see the sunshine back is it! High pressure travelling to the North as we get into the evening hours and through tomorrow, today it sits south of Nova Scotia.. this will mean we get the North-West wind flow, and while we will get some sunshine!.. it will also stay rather chilly! highs only in the mid to high 5's, MAYBE a few spots touching 10 degrees. That High will move closer to the island tonight and tomorrow, and will lay south of the Avalon, this would mean a South-West wind direction! so plan on much warmer day tomorrow and sunshine! Showers return though from a weak trough over Labrador Friday night into Saturday, to spread showers in the metro by Saturday morning, these should clear out in time for the late afternoon hours, Sunday is Beautiful! Here in Kamloops, BC in the southern interior desert where I am on vacation, it's warm! and dry. was about 27.5 degrees yesterday and should get to near 30 today! I badly want to go swimming! but the rivers are still very high and the beaches are still flooded! also i felt the water yesterday, and it was cold!!! overall, despite the no beach going I am enjoying my vacation! I am hiking and walking and taking lots of pics and enjoying the gorgeous weather, be sure to stay tune to meteorologist Athena Masson forecast on air til 8pm!
I will return with my forecasts on air on the Monday, June 18th! I I will be posting a few updates on and off during vacation. Have a great day! ~CHMR Chief Meteorologist James Follett |
