A trio of Okanagan highways are expecting some winter weather on Saturday, Dec. 7, that could delay those who plan on travelling this weekend.

Environment Canada issued weather warnings for the roads 91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ” a snowfall warning for the Coquihalla Highway from Hope to Merritt and a freezing rain warning for the Okanagan Connector from Merritt to West Kelowna and Highway 3 from Hope to Princeton.

From Saturday morning until Sunday afternoon, the stretch of the Coquihalla Highway is expecting 15 to 25 cm of snow. 

"With the arrival of a strong Pacific low-pressure system on the south coast, moderate rain is expected this morning," stated Environment Canada. "Rain will transition to snow, at times heavy, this afternoon, then periods of moderate flurries through the night. Snow is expected to ease Sunday afternoon."

Snow could accumulate on the highways, Environment Canada adds. 

It's unknown at this time if Coquihalla Protocol is in effect.

The Okanagan Connector and Highway 3 are only expecting freezing rain throughout Saturday morning, which could cause the highways to become icy and slippery for travellers. 

As the day goes on, the freezing rain is expected to turn into light flurries.

"Weather in the mountains can change suddenly resulting in hazardous driving conditions," said Environment Canada.
