Metro Vancouverites didn't have to deal with overcast conditions for very long this week.
Environment Canada is calling for the return of bright sunshine and soaring temperatures at the mid-way mark of the working week.
On Wednesday, May 24, overcast skies are expected to clear and a high of 19 C is expected on the coast with a 23 C high inland. Following this, Thursday's forecast includes a high of 22 C on the coast and 26 C inland. However, these temperatures are expected to feel toastier with humidity, at 25 C and 29 C, respectively.
Temperatures are expected to soar even higher by Friday, with highs of 23 C expected on the coast and 27 C expected inland. Environment Canada hasn't noted how the humidity will feel on this day, however.
The clouds are expected to roll back in over the weekend but Saturday's forecast still includes a 20 C high on the coast. Sunday is only expected to be slightly cooler.
Temperatures are expected to warm up slightly again at the start of next week.
