    Snow Survey and Water Supply Bulletin – January 1St, 2021

    Snow Survey and Water Supply Bulletin – January 1st, 2021 The January 1st snow survey is now complete. Data from 58 manual snow courses and 86 automated snow weather stations around the province (collected by the Ministry of Environment Snow Survey Program, BC Hydro and partners), and climate data from Environment and Climate Change Canada and the provincial Climate Related Monitoring Program have been used to form the basis of the following report1. Weather October began with relatively warm and dry conditions, but a major cold spell dominated the province in mid-October. Temperatures primarily ranged from -1.5 to +1.0˚C compared to normal. The cold spell also produced early season low elevation snowfall for the Interior. Following the snowfall, heavy rain from an atmospheric river affected the Central Coast and spilled into the Cariboo, resulting in prolonged flood conditions. Overall, most of the Interior received above normal precipitation for the month, whereas coastal regions were closer to normal. In November, temperatures were steady at near normal to slightly above normal and primarily ranged from -0.5 to +1.5˚C through the province. The warmest temperatures relative to normal occurred in the Interior, while the coldest occurred in the Northwest. Precipitation was mostly below normal to near normal (35-105%) with the Northeast / Peace as the driest areas. A few locations, e.g. Prince Rupert and Williams Lake, were above 130% due to a strong storm event early in the month. Temperatures in December were relatively warm across the province, ranging from +1.0 to +5.0˚C above normal.

Fernie offers a real, small-town experience with big Canadian Rocky Mountain adventures, while never losing sight of its enduring history. About Fernie, Facts & Story Ideas Some details to help start a great story about Fernie. Visit tourismfernie.com for details or contact us directly! Fernie Blog – click here What’s New – click here About Fernie From the jagged peaks of the Lizard Range to the unique caricature of Mount Hosmer, the mountains surrounding Fernie offer a sharp contrast to the quaint coal mining and ski town that sits at the base of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Located in south-eastern British Columbia, Canada. It is the only city in BC completely encircled by the Canadian Rockies. Fernie’s year-round population is approximately 4,300 but sees a surge in population in both the winter and summer months of tourists, seasonal staff and long-term visitors due to the multitude of activities available. Visitors to the area are pleasantly surprised at the many experiences, great restaurants, unique stores and things to do in Fernie given its size. Founded in 1898, Fernie was officially incorporated as a municipality in 1904. The economy was built on extraction of the Elk Valley’s plentiful natural resources - coal and forestry. The Coal Creek mine was officially opened late in 1897, the railway followed in 1898, and Fernie came to life. In 1963, the original ski hill, called Fernie Snow Valley, opened.
