May in Prince George was dry and seasonal according to Environment Canada.
The average temperature in the northern capital was 10.5 degrees. while the 30-year-average is 10.3.
As for the rain, Meteorologist Terri Lang told MyPGNow.com it stayed away for the most part.
“Only 20.3 millimetres was received in the Prince George area in May – the average is 45.3 millimetres and it is only about 45% of the average precipitation that was received. It was quite on the dry side.”
The only significant days for rainfall last month were May 21st and 25th.
With all things being considered, Lang stated it was a pretty dull month from Mother Nature.
“It was a little boring if I can say that. With respect to the temperature, you don’t want those extremes – the precipitation came within just a couple days of each other. Those days were when the precipitation did fall but the rest of the month was actually on the dry side.”
Lang added June is slated to be warmer and drier than normal.
“It is showing a better chance of it being drier than normal then it being cold and wet even,”
Daytime highs in Prince George are expected to begin in the low 20’s before cooling off to the high-teens with a chance of showers being predicted for the weekend.
