SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT

Low-Elevation Snowfall for South Coast When: - Tuesday morning: Widespread risk. - Wednesday morning: Local risk over higher terrain and inland sections. What: - Trace to 4 cm for areas near sea level. - Near or possibly exceeding 5 cm over higher terrain including the Malahat Highway, inland areas of Vancouver Island, and the North Shore on the Mainland. - The Sea to Sky Highway north of Squamish and including Whistler is forecast to receive 5 to 15 cm by Tuesday evening. Hazards: - Potential for challenging driving conditions. Allow extra time for travel. - Prepare for sudden reduction in visibility in heavy flurries. Remarks: A cold, unstable air mass is bringing a risk of snow down to sea level. Accumulations will be highly variable over short distances and will impact the Tuesday morning commute. North of Squamish, precipitation is likely to remain as snow throughout the day on Tuesday and Tuesday evening, generating higher total snowfall accumulations for the Sea to Sky Highway and Whistler. Inland areas, especially higher elevation roads of Vancouver Island are also at risk of wet flurries and additional accumulations continuing Tuesday afternoon. The risk of flurries returns Wednesday morning but is likely to be confined to neighbourhoods and roadways over higher terrain.
