Environment Canada has issued a warning about potential snowfall on the Coquihalla and other Interior highways.

It says wet snow or a mixture of rain and snow may create slippery conditions on highway passes in the region.

The weather office says precipitation is expected to become more steady this morning and continue until tomorrow morning.

The statement is in effect for the Coquihalla Highway from Hope to Kamloops, Highway 3 from Hope to Penticton via Allison Pass and the Okanagan Connector from Merritt to Kelowna.
