Environment Canada projects 15-25 cm of snow in B.C.
Snowfall and winter storm warnings cover much of British Columbia as a weather system moves from north to south across the province this weekend.
The weather office says the snow will start moving south on Saturday, dumping as much as 35 centimetres on the Columbia and North Thompson regions. Environment Canada is also forecasting significant snowfall for the south coast, with warnings covering all but the northern tip of Vancouver Island as well as Metro Vancouver, the Sea-to-Sky region, the Sunshine Coast and the Fraser Valley.
The Transportation Ministry issued a statement Friday saying crews were pro-actively applying anti-icing brine and would be out plowing to manage the snow, but drivers are reminded to avoid unnecessary travel in poor conditions.
