The warning comes as Environment Canada predicts a wintry mix of weather conditions that are expected to hit the south coast of B.C. over the next few days.

The weather office says rain is expected over the North Shore and Metro Vancouver, but a cold front will move over the region Friday afternoon, bringing 香蕉视频直播渁 quick burst of heavy snow香蕉视频直播� to some areas such as eastern Vancouver Island and the Sunshine Coast.

It says a low pressure centre will also be moving through the central coast, bringing up to 20 centimetres of snow to the region before reaching the central Interior later Friday.

Snowfall warnings cover much of the Interior, with Environment Canada warning drivers to expect up to 25 centimetres in some regions with deteriorating travel conditions and poor visibility.
