Sunny skies and rising mercury is being forecast from the beginning of the week, right through to Saturday, when some clouds are expected to roll in and temper the Labour Day long weekend fun.
From a pleasant 21C by the water at Vancouver Airport on Monday, the heat is forecast by Environment Canada to peak on Wednesday at 24C (29 inland), cooling down to 15C and clear skies at night.
