British Columbia experiences a varied climate during spring, with weather conditions ranging from mild to cool depending on the region. Coastal areas, like Vancouver, typically enjoy moderate temperatures averaging between 10-15°C (50-59°F), accompanied by increased rainfall, particularly in March and April. In contrast, the interior regions, such as Kelowna, can see warmer temperatures, often reaching 15-20°C (59-68°F) with less precipitation. Snow can still be present in the mountainous areas, while wildlife begins to emerge, and flora starts to bloom, leading to a vibrant and dynamic environment. Be prepared for fluctuating temperatures and pack layers to adjust to sudden changes.
