Synopsis
An upper low west of Vancouver Island this morning will slide southeastward today, arriving in Washington State later tonight and on Thursday. A developing southerly flow aloft today over the Southern BC Interior will send further cloud cover to our area, along with a chance of flurries on the mountain mainly later today and tonight (and a chance of lower-level rain showers this afternoon). Amounts will be light at most. Some clearing is likely on Thursday. Wind will be generally light today except for SE gusts of 35 km/h in the alpine this morning. Light wind on Thursday. Afternoon temperatures will also be slightly milder today and milder on Thursday.
Extended Outlook
Friday to Sunday: A weak front will reside across central BC on Friday, but no precipitation will fall in our area – just some cloud cover at times. A light westerly flow on Saturday and Sunday should result in more sun than clouds, and dry weather. Temperatures will continue to get a little milder each day over the period.
