Synopsis
The cold front, which stalled over the resort and brought a heavy snowfall last night, moved east of the area earlier this morning. An upper trough, following the front, will bring unstable conditions leading to a few flurries and the possibility of a few more cms of snow this afternoon. A weak ridge of high pressure along with a drier, cooler W to NW flow aloft will combine to bring a clearing trend tonight and mainly sunny conditions on Sunday. Generally, light winds can be expected on the slopes, and temperatures will trend a little cooler through the weekend.
Extended Outlook
Monday to Wednesday: Computer models are tipping toward a cooler pattern through the outlook period, with freezing levels staying below village level. A low-pressure system, dropping southward along the BC coast, may result in a light snowfall for the resort on Monday. An upper trough over southern BC will likely keep conditions cool with variable cloud cover and at least a chance of flurries on both Tuesday and Wednesday.
