Snowfall Warning

Whistler Weather forecast Fresh Snow Wednesday morning
video

A vigorous pacific frontal system will bring snow to the southwest interior Thursday. Low freezing levels overnight will result in snow through most southern interior valleys with snowfall accumulations of up to 10 cm before the warm front crosses the region and snow and changes to rain later Thursday. There is some uncertainty as to when the freezing levels will rise sufficiently to change the snow to rain. Should the change in precipitation be delayed additional snowfall amounts are possible and snowfall warnings could be needed. In additon, snow over high elevation routes will cause adverse winter driving conditions. Rainfall following the snow could create slick driving conditions with a slight risk of freezing rain during the transition from snow to rain.
