How does weather here affect camping and hiking?

For broader regional planning, check Vernon weather (30 km south) or Revelstoke weather (60 km east) as they often mirror conditions. If you are heading to nearby cities, Kelowna weather and Kamloops weather can be slightly warmer due to lower elevation.
