It says downpours of up to 70 millimetres are expected in the region before easing around noon, which could interrupt Remembrance Day events scheduled to happen this morning.

Special weather statements have also been issued for the Fraser Valley and along the Sunshine Coast, while snow and fog advisories have gone up elsewhere in the province.

A snowfall warning has been issued along Highway 3 from Paulson Summit to Kootenay Pass that is expected to continue until Wednesday.

Environment Canada says the heaviest snow is expected between this morning and Tuesday afternoon, bringing up to 40 centimetres of snow and gusty winds up to 50 km/h.
