VANCOUVER – Environment Canada has issued special weather statements for three major highways in the British Columbia Interior.
The weather agency says a Pacific front began approaching the southwestern Interior on Monday morning, bringing wet snow to highway summits.
The special weather statement covers some portions of the Coquihalla Highway, Highway 3, also known as the Crowsnest Highway, and the Okanagan Connector.
It says the Paulson Summit and Kootenay Pass are also expected to see snowfall starting Monday afternoon and lasting through Tuesday.
The weather agency says snowfall accumulations of up to five centimetres are expected Monday evening.
It’s urging drivers to exercise caution as weather conditions at high elevations may change quickly.
