Environment Canada has issued snowfall warnings in two areas of B-C.
The weather agency says up to 20 centimetres of snow is forecasted for inland sections of the Central Coast region including Bella Coola.

Environment Canada warns the snowfall could make for difficult travel conditions in both areas.
