A SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT is in effect: weather.gc.ca/en/location/in…
Very localised pockets of heavy snow with accumulations up to 10 cm are expected. In the North + South Thompson regions, heavier, localized rain showers may drag the snow levels down to near 600 metres.
Rain mixed with snow + cool temperatures can cause slippery road conditions, which means significantly longer stopping times. #Kamloops
Slow down + increase following distance to at least 4-seconds. #ShiftintoWinter

Driving along BC roads or highways? Watch for roadside signage that reminds drivers to be prepared to encounter wildlife 🦌.
Adjust your driving and increase your vigilance for animals on or beside the road.

Don’t learn by accident. Fall + winter road conditions vary around BC + can change quickly especially on higher elevation roads like the #Coquihalla (#BCHwy5) + McDonald Summit (#BCHwy24).
Be prepared + check @DriveBC before you go. #ShiftIntoWinter
🚗 Driving requires your full attention. Slow down and drive with care when visibility is reduced by 🌧️ rain or fog.
... and don't forget to turn on your taillights. Save the 👻 ghost look for 🎃 halloween!

Fall is in the air, and with those beautiful 🍂 🍁 fall colours comes more fog, 🌧️ rain, and 🌨️ snow. Light rain mixed with residual oil can make road conditions slick. Please slow down and drive with care as we #ShiftIntoWinter.
... and don't forget to turn on your tail lights.

Wet roads, frosty roads at the higher elevations, fog/rain ahead, fog on the windshield - none of these are ideal road conditions. Check DriveBC.ca as it is time to #ShiftIntoWinter❄️ and don't forget to watch for 🦌🫎#BCWildllife. #KnowBeforeYouGo

Shorter days mean you're more likely to find yourself driving in the dark. Make sure that you have clean, quality headlights to light your way home.
