Metro Vancouverites should brace for some wet weather this weekend.
V.I.A.'s Downtown Centre Weatherhood station shows a high of 23 C and a low of 13 C on Friday, May 30, with a mix and cloud (see slide two).
Environment Canada meteorologist Bobby Sekhon told V.I.A. in a previous interview that a ridge of high pressure would bring warmer temperatures to the region on Friday, but it would break down overnight. A cooler trough is expected to replace it, bringing temperatures down several degrees on Saturday.

Other areas are expected to see slightly warmer weather with less rain, such as Burnaby West with a 19 C high and 7 mm of precipitation, and Coquitlam Centre with a high of 17 C and 8 mm of precipitation.
Deep Cove is expected to see a high of 17 C and 11 mm of precipitation, Surrey City Centre will see the same daytime high but only 7 mm of precipiation.
