You can get freak storms any time of the year in Alberta and BC. I recall back in the early 80's a freak snow storm August long weekend as I drove through Greenwood BC, which is about 5 miles from the Wash. state boarder with BC, It lasted all of about 2 hrs. Couple years back my Daughter in Calgary had a dump of snow first week of June.
In Southern BC "Usually" we don't get any snow down in the Valley bottoms until mid to late November. Up in the Mountains you usually start seeing snow mid to late October, as we start snowmobiling usually by mid to late November "usually"
However if you count this last winter we really didn't have any snow in the Valley bottoms until the week before Xmas and that was gone 1st week on Feb, and hardly anything in the mountains all year. We in South eastern BC had only 15% of the regular snow pack this past winter, going to be a Hot summer this year with lots of risks of Forrest fires that for sure.
Northern BC well it's northern BC, like anywhere you can get a freak storm, as I don't live up there I can't comment on their weather patterns.
However we see the weather on TV for all of BC and the Southern Yukon ( Hi Sue) daily and they are starting to having weird weather up there just like we are starting to see down so who knows what to expect.
Best to go with the norm now to be on the safe side, which others have posted for leaving the North.
Soup.
