Prince George residents can look forward to a white Christmas this year, though we might not see much more snow until then.
According to Environment Canada, this weekend is when the city will see the most snow, particularly on Sunday with 5 centimetres, though temperatures will sit between -12 to -16.
Meteorologist Lisa Erven said by early next week is when the snowfall should taper off.
“For Christmas Day itself, we’re not seeing too much in the weather forecast. Basically, the central interior is kind of being in between weather systems, at least that’s what the current models suggest.”
Heading into Boxing Day, snow is forecast to make a return, with temperatures remaining in the negative mid teens.
Daytime highs will be well below the seasonal average by roughly 10 degrees, however, overnight lows look to be a couple degrees closer to normal.
Erven added that anyone travelling for the holidays should keep their eye on the forecast, and to look on Environment Canada’s BC Travellers Forecast for updates on the highways.
