KAMLOOPS — The white stuff could be on its way.

Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for many of the high mountain passes in the Southern Interior.

Regions affected include the Chilcotin, South Thompson, Nicola, Shuswap and Okanagan Valley.

The forecasting service is calling for temperatures and snow levels to drop overnight Thursday (Sept. 26), with a cold airmass persisting into the weekend.

That means the potential for snowfall on the high elevation passes, including on the Coquihalla Highway and Okanagan Connector.
