EK snow pack at 80 per cent of normal Warmer weather forecast to continue through the spring C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor
The BC River Forecast Centre has released its monthly information on snow pack accumulation and, as one would expect after recent warm weather, snow packs remain below normal for almost the entire province. In the East Kootenay, the snow pack is at 80 per cent of normal, although that will vary throughout the region as some areas received more of what snow did fall during January. Temperatures across British Columbia continued to be well above normal through the month of January. Temperatures were generally 2-4°C above normal, with the largest temperature anomalies occurring in the Central Interior and northern British Columbia. January sea surface temperature anomalies in the Pacific Ocean off the shores of British Columbia have continued to be several degrees above normal. See SNOW, page 3
