Daytime high temperatures are slated to reach 9 degrees C, according to Weatherhood, with overnight lows of 4 degres C.
The total amount of rain expected today is 14 millimetres (mm), That is just under half the amount of rain that fell on the wettest March 19 in Environment Canada's records for Sechelt. Those show that 25.7 mm was recorded for that location in 1957.
The rains are expected to stay with us for the next couple of days, with the Saturday looking like the driest day in store for the Coast this coming weekend.
