Extreme cold and storm warnings along with special weather statements about snow have been posted for several areas in BC.

Environment Canada says an Arctic air mass has settled over the northeastern parts of the province, resulting in temperatures near minus 26 and wind child values close to minus 40.

Extreme cold warnings have been issued for the Peace River and Dease Lake areas, and Arctic outflow winds are moving over the inland North Coast.

Up to 20 centimetres of snow is predicted for the Cariboo, West Columbia and Williston regions, while Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley, Sunshine Coast, Greater Victoria and the Malahat Highway are expecting five centimetres.
