Snowfall warning

Are You Ready to Dig Out? Snowfall Warnings Turn Canada into a Winter Wonderland!

Get your shovels ready, Canada! Environment Canada just issued a snowfall warning bringing 10 to 15 cm of snow to several regions, including Prince George and South Peace!

Attention, Canadian snow aficionados! Grab your mittens and hot cocoa because Environment Canada has put out a serious **Snowfall Warning** that’s just a little too cozy for comfort. Regions like Prince George, Bulkley Valley, and South Peace are bracing themselves as arctic air sweeps in, triggering a flurry of wintry weather. Expect a glorious mix of frostiness and flurries from Thursday all the way through to Friday afternoon—your snow angel skills are about to get a serious workout!

In particular, keep your snow gear close if you’re living in the **Chetwynd** and **Tumbler Ridge** areas, where locals should prepare for an impressive blanket of 10 to 15 centimeters of snow. Sounds like a perfect opportunity to channel your inner snowman builder! Not to mention, the Grande Prairie-Beaverlodge-Valleyview forecast area is also on high alert for some enchanting snowfall—a winter wonderland is literally just around the corner!

But don't rush to shove your way out just yet! With this prolonged snowstorm expected to hang around, the downward plunge in temperatures is set to make for some slippery adventures in and around Prince George. While the snow looks gorgeous from your window, let’s just say that winter driving is about to get real intense real fast! Ladies and gentlemen, it’s going to be a frosty weekend ahead.

As we all bundle up for this chilly ride, remember that snow isn’t just about shoveling and plowing—did you know that Canada produces an impressive 1.4 billion cubic meters of snow each winter? You’d think we were trying to build an ice palace here! And speaking of ice, keep in mind that a snow accumulation of just 1 cm can weigh about 1 kg, so those snowballs might be heavier than you think! Stay warm and enjoy the snowy escapades, eh?
