FORT NELSON, B.C. — Environment Canada has issued a freezing rain warning for the Fort Nelson region for Thursday, January 9th.

Drivers are advised to be prepared for changing road conditions as surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways, and parking lots become icy and slippery.

According to the service, a Pacific warm front passing above the cold air mass at the surface has led to an increased risk of freezing rain across the Fort Nelson region.

The weather period is expected to continue through the afternoon and end early in the evening on Thursday.

Environment Canada has issued similar warnings for areas in Grande Prarie, Alberta, such as near Beaverlodge, Sexsmith, Wembley, and more.

Severe weather can be reported by emailing BCstorm@ec.gc.ca
