The Metro Vancouver weather forecast calls for some decidedly chilly temperatures this week as the nights are expected to be completely clear.

A cold weather system is moving into the Lower Mainland, which Matt MacDonald, a meteorologist from Environment Canada, said is bringing “cold maritime air streaming down from Alaska.”

Starting Monday, Nov. 25, Environment Canada calls for sunshine and a high of 7 C during the day. Following this, the evening is expected to be mainly cloudy with a low of 2 C.  Tuesday’s forecast calls for a chance of showers during the day, but the evening is expected to be clear with a low of 0 C.

Wednesday through Sunday are expected to be sunny and bright and, as a result, the evening will be clear. Since cloud coverage tends to keep temperatures warmer, the daily lows will be increasingly chilly as the week progresses. Wednesday will reach a low of -1 C, but by Friday, temperatures are expected to dip down to a frigid -6 C.
