Snowfall warning in effect for Northern BC

staff report
November 27, 2024 10:00am

Environment Canada has issued a snowfall warning for parts of northern and central British Columbia, including the Cariboo region, with snow accumulations of 10 to 15 cm expected by Friday midday.

The warning affects areas such as Bulkley Valley, Williston, Stuart-Nechako, Prince George, McGregor, Pine Pass, and Yellowhead Highway from Tête Jaune Cache to the Alberta border.

Snowfall will begin Wednesday morning as a low-pressure system moves in from the Gulf of Alaska. Light snow is expected to transition to heavier and more consistent snowfall overnight, with the most intense periods occurring on Thursday. The system is expected to leave the region by midday Friday.

The snowfall may reduce visibility suddenly, particularly during heavier periods, creating hazardous driving conditions. Roads, highways, walkways, and parking lots may become slippery and difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow. Drivers are urged to turn on their lights, maintain a safe following distance, and exercise caution.

Residents are encouraged to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. For emergency preparedness tips, visit getprepared.gc.ca. Severe weather reports can be emailed to BCstorm@ec.gc.ca or shared on social media using the hashtag #BCStorm.
