As the final storm of 2021 makes its way to the North Coast/Northwest, Avalanche Canada highlights backcountry risks for the weekend

 

As we outlined yesterday, the North Coast and Northwest is in store for a very active weather period to bid farewell to 2021 and ring in 2022, with rain for the coastal regions and heavy snowfall ahead for those inland.

And with that as a preamble, Avalanche Canada has done some forecasting for the backcountry conditions in Alpine areas of our region and while today is a low risk day, as we move towards New Years day that situation is going to change.

Full Report for Coastal Regions available here.

Full Report for Inland areas is available here.

Avalanche Canada will issue the next forecast for the coastal an inland regions  at 4PM, you can access those notes here.

More notes on weather themes can be reviewed from our archive page.
