Depends on where you go in BC. The Lower Mainland (Vancouver area) and Vancouver Island should be great. What I remember when I lived there, mild temps, a lot of sun, and not too much rain.I don't know any of the answers to the questions. THough i do know that I will be going up to B.C. in Sept! Whats the weather like then? do you know?
I believe if you're heading to the mountains, you'll find the temps dropping in the evening.

as are the age ranges of many on this board, to include some of the owners/admins.I guess that means your profile is incorrect (18-27).
