Environment Canada calling for sun and cloud today with a slight chance of a midday shower. High of 23C.
Tomorrow the temp jumps up to 29C before dipping for the Father’s Day weekend.
On Friday, the expected high is just 21C, which would make it colder than the Arctic Circle. Places like Inuvik, Northwest Territories and Old Crow, Yukon, both located north of the Arctic Circle boundary are calling for highs of 22C.
