Cooler Temperatures with a High of 22°C and a Gloomy Outlook
Vancouver is experiencing a bit of a fall preview today, with temperatures reaching a high of 22°C. The day will be mostly cloudy, with a chance of showers as the day progresses. While the humidex might make it feel a bit warmer, the overall atmosphere is decidedly cooler and more autumn-like, bringing what some are calling “Augtober” vibes to the city.
Looking Ahead: Expect More of the Same
