Prince George- If you think the snow fall that this region is experiencing is just a bad dream left over from the spring of 2009, in which we received a major dump, think again.

Many residents got up this morning to see snowflakes falling throughout the region. The weather is expected to remain the same. This is what Environment Canada had to say today.

You should not be surprised however, it is afterall, the first long weekend camping opportunity.

Today

Periods of rain. Amount 5 to 10 mm. Wind northwest 20 km/h gusting to 40. High 7.

Tonight

Rain becoming mixed with wet snow overnight. Wind northwest 20 km/h gusting to 40 becoming light late this evening. Low plus 2 with risk of frost.

Saturday

Cloudy. Clearing in the evening. Wind becoming north 20 km/h early in the afternoon. High 10.

Sunday

Sunny. Low zero. High 13.

Monday

Sunny. Low plus 2. High 17.

Well, it did it last year also on this weekend.

I think we better blame it on the Global warming.

This is Gordon Campbell's fault! Let's bring in the socialists and spend our way out of this mess. :)

I learned my lesson last year, planted my garden before the May long weekend. So tempting though when it's been nice and sunny out for a while now!

Plant after the Victoria day weekend.
Don't bother camping on this weekend either because historically it is as we see it today.

We can blame Campbell for a lot of things, and he is probaly guilty as hell on most of them,...the weather I fear isn't one of them....lets blame the yanks for that instead!

"Let's bring in the socialists and spend our way out of this mess."

The Liberals have already spent it all.

Global Polution....I agree with...
Global Warming is in my opinion a scam...

the earth has been through these changes many times before...governments in my opinion have found a way to gouge more money and try and instill fear so, all obey them...and shut up and pay...

I, and others, believe Al Gore's mouth to be one of the largest contributors to global warming. Haven't heard much from him lately, hence the snow.
