Winter Storm Warning in place for PG and Stuart-Nechako areas

Another blast of winter is on its way for the Prince George and Stuart-Nechako areas.

A Winter Storm Warning has been issued by Environment Canada where anywhere between 20-30 centimetres of snow is expected to fall, with the bulk of it occurring on Saturday.

A frontal system over the Gulf of Alaska will bring snow at times heavy to the B.C. interior.

Snow will begin this evening and intensify overnight, before tapering off to periods of light snow Sunday.

In addition, an Extreme Cold Warning is in place this morning as windchill values could reach near -40.

This is expected to last until the afternoon.
