Environment Canada has issued weather alerts across the Peace Region, advising drivers to use extra caution on the roads.
The weather agency has released yellow warnings for the Peace River District and the southern parts of the Fort Nelson region.
It said 10 to 15 cm of snow is expected Monday.
An orange warning was also issued for the Pine Pass Area between Old Hasler Road and Mackenzie Junction.
Environment Canada said the forecast calls for 30 to 40 cm of snow in the Pine Pass area, with most of the accumulations expected by Tuesday morning.
“Weather in the mountains can change suddenly resulting in hazardous driving conditions,” the warning said.
Environment Canada’s weather alerts are colour-coded depending on potential risk.
The colour indicates the potential level of impact in a given area, depending on factors such as timing, location, and population, helping people prepare appropriately.
Yellow alerts are the most common and signal hazardous weather that could cause moderate impacts.
Orange alerts are less common and are for severe weather with major impacts.
Red alerts are the rarest and are issued for very dangerous or possibly life-threatening weather.
Environment Canada said snow will tamper Monday night but is expected to continue in the region through Wednesday.
