Forecasters offer gift of fair weather to B.C.’s Christmas travellers
KAMLOOPS, B.C. – Christmas travellers in British Columbia shouldn’t face a gruelling trip home if they are planning to drive across the province this week.
Environment Canada forecaster Greg Pearce says Vancouver and south coast will see rain, but otherwise there are no incoming storms across the southern Interior or eastward to Alberta.
Pearce says there may be some light flurries between Hope and the Coquihalla summit on Wednesday and mild accumulations on Christmas Eve.
He says drivers heading north into the central Interior should also see fairly good conditions.
The weather office is calling for flurries across most of B.C., leading up to Christmas Day, and is even forecasting possible flurries at higher elevations in Vancouver on Christmas Eve.
But Pearce says those regions that don’t already have snow on the ground probably won’t see a white Christmas. (CHNL)
