Frozen February soon a distant memory
KAMLOOPS — Environment Canada is confirming what many in Kamloops already suspected: this month has been winterier than normal.
Forecaster Alyssa Charbonneau says February received more snow and colder temperatures than historical averages.
“The average mean temperature for the month was -3.3°C. Typical temperature for this month is actually 0.1°C, so when you are looking on average being three degrees colder than normal, that is significantly colder,” said Charbonneau.
Kamloops Airport received 27.2 centimetres of snow this month, compared to a normal of eight centimetres.
