Hey there, time traveller!

British Columbia’s wildfire service says much of the province has experienced “unsettled” weather conditions, with rain in some areas that have been hot spots for fire this season, but a drying pattern is forecast to settle in later in the week.
The latest bulletin from the BC Wildfire Service says the southern half of the province was to see showers and cooler temperatures along with some winds.
It says the risk of thunderstorms extended to parts of the Coast Mountains, with most storms bringing rain.
In northeastern B.C., a cold front was expected to arrive Sunday, delivering gusty winds and precipitation.
The wildfire service says the thunderstorms and showers would extend into the early part of the week, but a return to drier conditions is expected to start on Wednesday or Thursday in the southern parts of the province.
Environment Canada has rescinded severe thunderstorm bulletins that had spanned parts of the southern Interior and northeast on Sunday afternoon.
There are just over 70 active wildfires across B.C., with fewer than 10 of those blazes classified as burning out of control as of Sunday.
Most of the active blazes are located in northeastern B.C., with clusters on Vancouver Island and in the southern Interior.
