VANCOUVER ISLAND, B.C. – Warm and sunny days are back, as September comes to an end and October rolls around.

The week has nothing but sun in the forecast, with temperature soaring up to 20-21 degrees, which is a full 4 degrees warmer than normal for this time of the year, according to Environment Canada meteorologist Matt MacDonald.
