Snowfall warning for Kootenay-Yoho

Environment Canada has issued a snowfall warning in effect for Kootenay and Yoho National Parks.

Snowfall with total amounts of 10 to 20 cm is expected in those areas.

“A Pacific low pressure system will track across southern B.C. today and move into Alberta overnight. As snow levels lower this evening, snow will start to accumulate rapidly over locations above about 1,200 metres. Rogers Pass and the Yoho Park – Kootenay Park region are forecast to receive 10 to 20 cm tonight. The snow will taper off Tuesday morning as the low moves out of the area,” Environment Canada stated this morning.

Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions. Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow.

Kimberley and area is also expected to get about five cm of snow today.
