More snow to follow freezing rain in Prince George

A special weather statement has been issued for much of BC’s interior, including Prince George.

“At the moment, there is a Pacific frontal system that is moving across most of the BC Interior,” said Environment Canada Meteorologist Gary Dickinson.

“This is a warm system, so it is warming the airmass a little bit, which is producing ice pellets and freezing rain, which may impede some travel.”

Dickinson added the system is moving to the North East, and the ice pellets and freezing rain should subside by noon today. (Monday)

“With precipitation easing, we should expect a mix of sun and cloud coming this afternoon, with a high going up to plus five,” Dickinson said.

“There is another weather system that’s going to be bringing snow. We should see light amounts, we’re just looking at accumulations of two-to-five centimetres for Tuesday.”

Dickinson added the snow should start to ease slightly on Wednesday.
