In a recent report, TWN elaborates on the colder-than-usual weather expected to hit BC over the next week, and how to best prepare.

“B.C. and Alberta are getting a stormy start to the week, thanks to a powerful Pacific low, which will be followed by a blast of Arctic air.” Metro Vancouver residents should prepare themselves for “gusty winds” and possible power outages, according to the report.

“In the Lower Mainland, frigid temperatures are expected to last from Tuesday until Friday, according to Environment Canada,” says another report.

So, it’s time to prepare yourselves for cooler temps and snow in the forecast, Vancouver. Stay safe out there!
