It's 20 degrees outside this morning and it's expected to reach a high of 31 degrees later this afternoon.
With overcast skies, there's a 30% chance of rain for this morning, followed by a mix of sun and cloud.

For today, there is a special air quality statement in effect for the Central, North and South Okanagan.
Avoid strenuous activities and find cool, well-ventilated indoor spaces.
