B.C. will be hit with a jolt of Arctic air Wednesday that will lead to cold and blustery conditions along the coast, according to a weather alert issued by Environment and Climate Change Canada.
Temperatures are expected to dip below the freezing mark for most coastal communities.
With the addition of blustery outflow winds, the wind-chill values are expected to be in the minus-five to minus-10 C range.
“People working and spending time outside are reminded to dress warmly and in layers, preferably with a wind-resistant outer layer. Travellers are encouraged to add winter emergency kits to their vehicles, which include a blanket, extra clothes and boots,” the weather agency said.
