These spots near Vancouver saw the first snowfall of the season
Snowfall finally appeared in parts of the Lower Mainland, and although it skipped a few places, some cities were lucky enough to receive a healthy dose.
There are, however, currently two highway snowfall warnings for the Coquihalla Highway from Hope to Merritt and on the Sea to Sky Highway from Squamish to Whistler.
Now that snow has finally touched down in some spots, let’s look at all the places in the Lower Mainland that are closer to a white winter season.

Hope saw snow early this morning, and the flakes are still flying. Environment and Climate Change Canada predicted that the first day of frost in Vancouver would be on November 10, but so far, we haven’t seen any snowfall just yet.

There was enough snow to make a small snowman in Coquitlam. Thankfully, it was sturdy enough to use as a dash ornament.
