Whistler, B.C., is expected to get its first B次元官网网址渟ignificant snowfallB次元官网网址� of the season this weekend.

Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for the winter resort as well as for Pemberton and the Sea-to-Sky Highway between Squamish and Whistler.

It says a weather system will arrive Saturday, bringing rain to the coast and snow to the inland regions.

The weather office says snow is expected to begin early Saturday before turning into a mix of rain by afternoon and then tapering off in the evening.

Up to 10 centimetres of snow is possible, as temperatures hover near zero, and Environment Canada is warning drivers travelling on the Sea-to-Sky Highway to prepare for winter driving conditions as visibility may be reduced due to blowing snow.

A fog advisory has also been issued for the Bulkley Valley on Friday, so drivers in that region are also asked to prepare as B次元官网网址渧isibility may be significantly and suddenly reduced to zero.B次元官网网址�
