Share

Ready for more snow, Victoria?

Another special weather statement has been issued for Greater Victoria and the rest of the island as a second winter storm arrives Sunday.

On the heels of a snow-producing storm which began Friday evening and carried on through Saturday, a second storm will arrive on the south coast on Sunday and last until Monday.

According to Environment Canada, this second storm will see a transition from snow to rain for most areas of Vancouver Island.

The storm will begin as snow on Sunday morning before transitioning to rain early in the afternoon for southern areas and to late in the evening for northern areas.

Nanaimo may experience greater snowfall from a later transition to rain due to Howe Sound outflow.

The weather agency says snowfall amounts will vary due to the timing of the transition and warns additional alerts may be issued once snowfall amounts become more certain.
