A Cold Province

Most of the Province of British Columbia is now under the Arctic air.  That trend seems like it will continue for a few more days for us in the Bella Coola Valley.  We still have outflow winds but they are not as bad and the cold is staying in the -5 to -7 C range, which is minor compared to cold in other areas of the province.  

Today in the valley was another blue sky day and if you had something to do outside that didn't depend on ground being not frozen, it wasn't a bad day to do it. The only surprise awaiting us at the end of the Arctic outbreak is how it will end, it's usually only one of two ways, a big snowfall, or mild with some freezing rain and then some more rain.   Grizzly
