Environment Canada issued a snowfall warning where up to 10 to 15 centimetres is expected to accumulate between tonight (Tuesday) and Wednesday morning.

An intense Pacific frontal system is approaching the BC Interior.

Light snow from the system will start late this afternoon and intensify this evening.
