Headline: HEAVY SNOWFALL ADVISORY
"Up to 25 cm of snow expect to fall on parts of Southern Interior"
https://www.castanet.net/news/Kelowna/5 ... n-Interior
So this story is linked to the Kelowna section (the central OK it looks like) ,,, wow !
It's not until you get to the seventh paragraph when the story appears to concern mountain passes, NOT the valley bottom.
But yes, I guess "parts of Southern Interior" includes high mountain passes.
Shame on you Cindy White, you write this type of misleading story, having 30 years experience. Are you that hungry for a story ????

- A blast of pre-Christmas snow is headed our way.
Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement advising of heavy snowfall starting Tuesday in parts of the Southern Interior, including the Okanagan, North Thompson, Shuswap, West Kootenay and Columbia regions.
Snowfall with total accumulations of 10 to 25 cm is forecast starting tomorrow.
“A moisture-laden Pacific frontal system will bring heavy snow to parts of the southern BC interior Tuesday night into Wednesday,” said Environment Canada.
While snow is expected to intensify and persist in the North Thompson, Shuswap and West Columbia into Wednesday, the snow could turn to rain for the Okanagan, Boundary, West Kootenay and into the Elk Valley.
A winter storm warning has been issued for Highway 3 from Paulson Summit to Kootenay Pass. That stretch of highway could see 30 to 40 cm of snow.
Drivers are being warned to expect accumulating snow or rain on snow on most high mountain passes in the Southern Interior, leading to slippery and slushy roads. Travellers should also expect sudden reductions in visibility during heavy snowfall."

I had to put this video somewhere.
Waiting for a wide load. Wide? It's mucking huge.
It's a splitter, used to separate propylene from propane, which is then processed into a recyclable plastic known as polypropylene. Which is used to make computers, medical equipment and other useful items needed in our society.
This was a few years ago, apparently a larger load was on the Alberta highways a year ago.
