Prince George, B.C.- Environment Canada’s Jim Steele says it has been a wild weather weekend, and he adds, “It’s not done yet”.
There are 17 different weather warnings out this morning from wind chill to, blowing snow, and heavy snow in the mountain passes.
Steele says the severe weather hit pretty much all of BC on the weekend, and some new records for snowfall in one day have been established.
"It’s not over yet" says Steele "Come Tuesday, another front will hit the coast and move inland with more snow.
Locally snow measurements in excess of 30 centimetres have been widely reported." Steele says he will have the records available for February 27th later in the day.
In Prince George and many other surrounding communities, it’s been a difficult morning for vehicles to get around.
West Jet cancelled one flight because of the weather.
