Synopsis
An upper low over Washington State will move quickly eastward today. That low pressure center was responsible for dropping a few cm of snow on the resort over the last 24 hours. Around the low, cloud cover remains over southern BC, but some clouds will slide away from the resort area this afternoon. Wind will be light today as well. A weak passing trough may generate a few showers or alpine flurries this evening. A weak front will reside across central BC on Friday, but dry weather is likely in our area – mainly just cloud cover at times. Temperatures will be a little milder today and on Friday.
Extended Outlook
Saturday to Monday: A light westerly flow aloft and surface high pressure on Saturday and Sunday will result in a mix of sun and clouds, and dry weather with light wind. A little more cloud may move in on Monday but dry and very mild weather will hold. Temperatures will increase several degrees on Sunday and Monday.
