An arctic front passing over Vancouver Island is bringing temperatures that are about five to 10 degrees below seasonal.
It was snowing in Qualicum Beach in the morning of Dec. 18, 2022.
Ross Macdonald, meteorologist with the agency, says the arctic front is making its way across the lower mainland Sunday morning, then will make its way to the Island overnight. “That same arctic front is going to push towards the Island. We’re not expecting to see the same kind of snowfall totals that we’ve been seeing on the mainland side, but we will see a little bit of snow come across during the day to day and tonight.”
Monday and Tuesday night are expected to be the coldest, with overnight lows in Nanaimo around minus six or seven and Victoria expected to be around minus four or five.
