Twenty daily temperature records tumbled across&nbsp;British Columbia on Monday as conditions in the province remained unseasonably warm for the first week of fall.

Environment Canada says a preliminary review of daily maximum&nbsp;temperatures shows records were set in areas from&nbsp;the south and&nbsp;central coasts to the central Interior and northeastern sections of&nbsp;B.C.

Squamish posted the highest daily record in the province at 29.9&nbsp;C, smashing the previous high for Sept. 26 of 26.5 C posted in 1991.

Other hot spots included Port Alberni at 29.5 C, shattering the high of 27.8 C&nbsp;set more than a century ago in 1918.

The weather office shows rain is expected in many areas by Wednesday, but Lytton remains in the running to set a record as forecasters call for a Tuesday high of 32 C in the&nbsp;Fraser Canyon village.
