Get ready for some heat.

Environment Canada is calling for above-average high temperatures and mostly sunny skies this week for the Kelowna area.

Today is expected to be sunny with a high of 29 C and winds out of the north at 20 km/h. Not surprisingly, the UV Index will be very high at 9.

The only blip on the radar is Tuesday, when there is a 60 per cent chance of showers.

Tomorrow is expected to hit 31 C, and next weekend is looking similar, at least as of now.
