Terrace + Shames the place to be 80cm forecasted!

  • 2010-03-13 19:43:48

    This prediction from the CAC avi report for Northwest BC:

    A natural avalanche cycle is expected in coastal areas on Sunday, but the extent of this cycle will depend on precipitation amounts. Currently 40-50mm is forecast for Terrace. This could equate to around 80cm in the mountains. If snowfall amounts are considerably less we may not reach extreme danger; but high danger is almost certain.


    Sunday: Terrace and coastal areas could see as much as 50cm of snow through tonight and Sunday (maybe 5-10cm inland). Winds will be very strong (+100km/h) from the south and the freezing level will be around 1000m. Monday and Tuesday: Continued snow or flurries. Expect an additional 5-10cm per day. Freezing levels around 1300-1500m.
