Environment Canada ended its special weather statement Tuesday morning, which had called for light snow and freezing sleet during the early commute. With temperatures not expected to drop near freezing Tuesday night, the forecast calls for periods of rain or drizzle instead of snow or thunderstorms. This slightly milder, wetter pattern is expected to continue into Wednesday and into Thursday, with daytime highs ranging between 5C and 7C and overnight lows falling to 3C. However, the temperature is expected to drop by the weekend. A lower temperature of 1 C is expected on Friday night with clouds. Saturday could get even colder as the forecast includes a 60 percent chance of showers during the day, but a chance of flurries overnight as temperatures drop below freezing. The icy pattern is expected to persist until Sunday, with a low of -2C and thunderstorms forecast overnight.
Vancouver metro weather forecast

Prior to the onset of meteorological winter, there was a range of temperatures throughout the fall, and taking a 90-day average temperature does not tell the full story. Instead, a closer look at Vancouver’s fall season shows it’s been “volatile” and a “season of extremes,” according to a new report.
