Better cover up those tender plants tonight, it could get a little chilly.
Environment Canada says there’s a risk of frost for Prince George tonight.
While the forecast low is not expected to dip below freezing, don’t be surprised to see a little white on the rooves of houses when you wake up Tuesday morning after an overnight low of 3 C. After a mostly cloudy Monday, late afternoon clearing will allow daytime heat to escape into the atmosphere and that will add to the chill in the air.
A special air advisory issued remains in effect for Prince George.
Smoke from wildfires in the western United States continues to drift and is predicted to remain over the city on Tuesday. According to the Environment Canada bulletin: "Very heavy smoke from the United States is continuing to have extensive impacts across the southern third of the province with lesser impacts extending into the mid-regions of the province." Smoky conditions are expected to be variable but persist in areas currently being impacted until Thursday.”
The good news for Prince George is there’s sunshine in the forecast for the next four days. How sunny it gets depends on how much wildfire smoke reaches the city. The highs are predicted to hit 15 C on Tuesday, 18 C on Wednesday, 23 C on Thursday and 19 C on Friday.
Lows will be in the 5C – 9C range with a few clouds building later in the week and a chance of showers on the weekend.
