Vancouver has Canada’s best weather. In the summer, it is sunny and warm but because we are next to the ocean it is never too hot. The temperature is between 20-30 degrees. It really is perfect. Winter is never too cold and the temperature rarely drops below zero degrees. This season, while warm, is also known as the rainy season but the rain is not heavy. It is just a slow constant drizzle. Vancouverites carry an umbrella and enjoy knowing that they won’t have to shovel any snow. Minutes away from downtown in the mountains, we do get snow for skiing, snowboarding and snowshoeing – it really is the best place to live!
