KAMLOOPS — It was a winter wonderland in Kamloops Tuesday.

Environment Canada meteorologist Doug Lundquist says snow amounts varied between 2 centimetres at the Kamloops Airport to 23 at Helmer on the highway south of Kamloops.

He said areas like Aberdeen and Sahali saw somewhere between both those extremes.

“And we could still get two to five more in the valley bottom, perhaps 5 to 10 centimetres in Aberdeen and maybe 10-15 on the Coquihalla Summit.

He expects the snow to taper off completely by mid-morning Wednesday which will be followed up with a cold snap.
