  The cold front that brought the wet snow was just "winter's last hurrah," said Jim Steele, a meteorologist with Environment Canada.
  
  "This is just a short-lived blip on the road to spring," he said, adding Kamloopsians can expect temperatures in the mid-teens this weekend.

  Put away the parka and stow your mukluks, spring has finally arrived according to Environment Canada meteorologist Jim Steele."I think we're just about done with winter now," he said.The month of April has been plagued with below normal temperatures and clouds. Normal April temperatures are around 17 C for a high and 4 C for a low.The coldest weather came in during the early morning hours of April 14, with a low of -3 C. Thanks to a ridge of high-pressure building across the province, temperatures will be in the mid-20s this weekend and early next week, Steele said.

  According to Jim Steele, a spokesperson for Environment Canada, these funnels are different from the tornados that can ravage the midwestern U.S. in summer."Cold air funnels are not your full-blown midwestern tornado," he said."They come from very cold, unstable air and normally are quite weak.They don't cause a lot of damage.Most of the time they hang down like a rope and spin down and retreat back into the clouds."If one was to touch down, it would be fairly exciting I'm sure, but normally they don't touch down."If they touch down, they could throw something around that wasn't bolted in place, like lawn furniture, but aren't likely to take the roof off a house, he said."Still if you see one or anything coming out of the bottom of a cloud, go inside and take cover," Steele said, adding the public should go indoors if they see any weather that looks threatening.

  Environment Canada meteorologist Jim Steele said winds picked up at 8 a.m. and lasted a quick 40 minutes, but despite the brevity of the storm damage was significant.Steele said the abrupt storm came from out of nowhere.
  ...
  Weird weather is nothing new for Kamloops residents this summer, Steele said."It seems like weather has taken on a new idea of extremes in Kamloops.Things can't just be normal. . . and that's good for employment in the meteorological business."While the September forecast calls for higher than normal temperatures and normal precipitation levels, the summer has been anything but ordinary."The swings are just unbelievable.We had the third warmest summer on record."Coupled with the fact the area took in three times more rain than last year, Steele can only come to one conclusion."Kamloops has gone tropical.

  So said Environment Canada meteorologist Jim Steele. Kamloops felt record temperatures through out the Hot Nite in the City weekend, Steele said.This city even established the record for hottest overnight temperature making sleep almost as impossible as finding a root beer-flavoured Popsicle at 7-Eleven."We've had quite a stretch here.Last Thursday we broke a record, Friday we broke a record and Saturday was the warmest with 39 C, just shy of the all-time highest temperature ever recorded in August," said Steele.
