PG’s first snowfall of the season not expected to stick around

Prince George has had its first snowfall of the year, but don’t expect any snowmen for the next little while.

Environment Canada Meteorologist Derek Lee said the snowfall is on the wetter side as temperatures remain on the warmer side, though there could be build up in some spots.

“It is expected to continue warming overnight, so I would say the snow maybe some local amounts of 2-4 centimetres is possible, but with the transition into the warm air mass following right behind this snow, we are likely to see it all melt before the morning.”

Lee added that we’ll stay fairly warm heading into next week, with Halloween forecast to reach eight degrees, though overnight lows will be around zero degrees.

He noted during this time of year, Prince George sees a bit more fluctuation, changing from warm to cool right away, with this week being a couple degrees warmer than normal, and the start of November returning to normal.
