Environment Canada is cautioning that there is still the potential for snow throughout the Lower Mainland.
A special weather statement from the federal agency notes snow is possible throughout the day Wednesday (March 11) as well as Wednesday evening, mainly over higher terrain and inland areas, due to a Pacific storm that will make landfall today.
Freezing levels are low enough that precipitation may begin as wet snow or a mixture of wet snow and rain this morning for higher-elevation communities and roads, and areas further inland, including Surrey and Langley, the statement said.
There is also a slight risk that a heavier pocket of precipitation could generate wet snow down to sea level briefly.
Up to five centimetres is possible for the Lower Mainland, while another 5 to 10 cm is possible for high-elevation roads of Inland Vancouver Island.
Snow brings hazards such as the potential for challenging driving conditions, Environment Canada cautioned commuters, and advised drivers to allow extra time for travel.
