mountain weather forecast for coastal British Columbia issued by the
Pacific weather centre of Environment Canada in Vancouver at 2:00 PM
PST Sunday 26 november 1995 valid until midnight Monday.  The next
scheduled forecast will be issued at 6:00 AM PST Monday.

Precipitation intensity is forecast as an
hourly rate of snowfall water equivalent.

no pcpn   up to 2.5 mm   2.5 to 7.5 mm   more than 7.5 mm

discussion.
    A patchy moist slightly unstable west-northwest flow will affect
the regions tonight. A frontal wave near 49n/143w this afternoon will
move to lie 49n/134w Monday at 4am and to 49n/129w Monday 4pm. It will
spread increasingly steady precipitation from west to east across the
south coast beginning Monday morning. Cloud from the northern portion
of the system will brush the north and central coasts as well but
decreasing amounts of precipitation are expected farther northward.
Significant warm air advection will accompany this feature across the
south mainly the second half of Monday thus raising the freezing levels
considerably. Meanwhile in the north a drier regime will prevail as
outflow conditions develop.

Freezing level..1400 metres south to 1000 metres north. Levels rising
to 2000 metres south and 1200 metres north Monday evening.

Extended outlook.
The upper flow will become more southwesterly on Tuesday and will lie
across the south coast. A series of systems will bring copious amounts
of precipitation and mild conditions Tuesday and Wednesday while the
north stays drier. A broad cool trough will move in on Thursday as the
storm track shifts south.

South coast mountains.
Warnings.. None.
Isolated light flurries through Monday morning. Light to moderate snow
through the remainder of Monday.
