Hey there, time traveller!

Another dozen temperature records have fallen in British Columbia thanks to the ongoing spell of warm weather brought to the province by a ridge of high pressure.
Monday was also the third day in a row that the hottest spot in Canada was in B.C.
The mercury peaked in B.C. at 36.7 Celsius in Osoyoos Monday afternoon, a new daily record.
Other areas where the 12 temperature records were set Monday included Trail, which reached 36.6 Celsius, and Castlegar, which hit 36.4 Celsius and broke a record set in 1918.
Environment Canada says the “early season heat event” that brought 15 daily records on Sunday will persist in some areas of the province, including the south coast and parts of Vancouver Island, the southwestern Interior and the western parts of the Kootenay District.
There are 26 special weather statements in place for southern B.C., with daily high temperatures expected to remain in the high 20s to low 30s in some coastal areas Tuesday, reaching into the mid-to-high 30s in the Interior.
