Environment Canada is recommending NO TRAVEL through the Muncho Lake area today
WARNINGS
5:15 AM PDT Saturday 28 May 2016 -- Snowfall warning in effect for:
Muncho Lake Park - Stone Mountain Park
A long period of snowfall, with total amounts of 20 (8") to 30 cm (12") is expected.
A cold upper trough of low pressure over the province has created a moist easterly flow over northeast BC. Snow has already developed over higher elevations last night. As freezing levels lower snow will develop elsewhere by this afternoon. The snow will be heavy at times and continue through tonight. Total snowfall accumulations will range from 15 to 20 cm at lower elevations to 30 cm or more at higher elevations. The snow will ease Sunday morning and change to rain at lower elevations Sunday afternoon.
Travel is not recommended. Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow.
I saw that this morning. We are going to spend another night here in Fort Nelson. Hopefully we can get out of here tomorrow.
Thanks for the post.
