30C and 86F
https://weather.gc.ca/data/wxoimages/wocanmap0_e.jpg Today was another day of Vancouver & Victoria not even reaching 20C, let alone 30C. However, Yellowknife and Ottawa reached 30C today, but Vancouver & Victoria not even close. https://weather.gc.ca/canada_e.html
It very difficult for Vancouver to have 90-100 days of nice summer weather. Fall like weather keeps cutting into the Vancouvers shorts summers.

As several places get hot for the summer, Vancouver is usually stuck with a truncated summer season.

Will it rain until Canada day in Metro Vancouver?

Nothing like cold, damp and depressing fall like weather when its supposed to be summer in Vancouver, BC. June 26 was awful!

How much will Vancouver change by 2036?

The Lion+Bridge will likely still not have an express bus and LRT tunnel near it. The+Iron+Bridge still might not have a proper BRT and LRT bridge next to it. The OSB and the KSB will likely not have a bus and bike bridge built beside them. There will still likely be no new Fraser Street Bridge for bikes and buses. No Boundary Road bridges to provide a direct link between the North Shore and Richmond for buses, trucks and bikes.
While the first 2 Skytrain lines will have 5 car trains, the stunted YVR-Canada Line will only have 2.5 car trains. Vancouver still might not permit any office tower to have a 40th floor, but might allow some residential towers to be on a Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane & Toronto scale.
However, BIG city thinking and planning in Vancouver has always been so difficult. Boston, SF and the City of Paris are ridiculously small cities like Vancouver with all 3 having a land area of less than 50 sq. mi. or 129.5 sq. km. Yet, Boston, SF and especially the City of Paris, have all been able to fit so much more into the same general space. That's because they aren't bound by anything like the inept and extreme Vancouver type restrictions.
