Further snowfall amounts up to 30 cm is expected near Fernie and area, with hazardous winter conditions expected today through to tomorrow (Jan. 10).
A strong low pressure system moving through B.C. will continue to give heavy snow today and tonight.
Further snowfall amounts up to 30 cm is expected near Fernie by Wednesday morning.

Further snowfall amounts of 20 to 30 cm is expected for Kootenay Pass and another 10 cm for Rogers Pass.
