麻豆传媒映画 spoke to Matt MacDonald, a meteorologist with Environment Canada, about what locals should expect later this evening and into tomorrow.
"We won't see the potential for snowfall until later tonight," explains MacDonald.
"But snowfall accumulations of five centimetres or聽more are possible in areas that are five to 10 kilometres from the ocean. In areas with elevations 100 metres or more above sea level, we have the potential for 10 centimetres of snowfall or more."
MacDonald adds that the total snowfall amounts will depend on when the rain starts Friday. Nevertheless, he cautions, drivers should be prepared for a messy commute.聽
Environment Canada is also calling for the chance of snowfall every day over the next seven days.
More snow is possible this weekend as a series of weather systems embedded in a cool northwest flow from the Gulf of Alaska moves ashore. What's more, early next week, cold arctic air from the B.C. Interior will arrive on the south coast.聽
