If you're planning on getting outdoors this weekend, you might have to get a little wet.
The Vancouver weather forecast calls for rain both days this weekend. However, the start of next week looks decidedly sunny.
Starting on Thursday, March 25, Environment Canada calls for a minor chance of drizzle in the morning and cloudy skies at night. Friday is expected to see a mix of sun and cloud and a high of 11°C while the evening is expected to be cloudy.
Saturday's forecast calls for a 30 per cent chance of showers during the day and rain at night, while Sunday is expected to see rain during the day and showers at night.
Heading into Monday, however, the forecast calls for bright sunshine during the day. That said, the overnight low will dip down to a chilly 0°C.
Tuesday and Wednesday are expected to see a mix of sun and cloud.
Metro Vancouver Weather Forecast

"The seasonal model is indicating that there is a chance for near-normal temperatures in Metro Vancouver this year," he says. However, he adds that this year's spring forecast isn't looking very "conclusive."
What does this mean?
"April and May seem to be the most uncertain. The second half of March could see below-average temperatures, but I don't think we're going to be looking at any deep cold air."
