Environment Canada issued another snowfall warning for the Coquihalla Highway, from Hope to Merritt.
Snow continues to fall, and by the time all is said and done an extra 15 to 25 centimetres will have coated the highway.
“A cool moist unstable air mass behind a cold front will continue to spread flurries at times heavy to the southern highway passes,” according to an Environment Canada alert. “Five to 15 centimetres of snow have fallen over the Coquihalla Summit last night. An additional 10 centimetres of snow are expected today before the system weakens.”
