A frontal system will cross the south coast on Tuesday. Snow will begin Tuesday morning and may catch the tail-end of the morning commute. Snow will likely become mixed with rain in the afternoon, especially near the water and over lower elevations. For areas further inland, including the Lower Fraser Valley, snow may persist Tuesday night.
Total snowfall accumulations for western sections of Metro Vancouver will be in the 2 to 5 cm range, while the lower Fraser Valley could see between 5 and 10 cm.
A ridge of high pressure will rebuild on Wednesday for two days of sunny weather. The next front will move onto the south coast on Friday with the potential for another bout of wet snow and rain.
