Drive BC is still showing a travel advisory for Hwy 16 and Hwy 5 around Valemount and semi-trailers are crammed all along the frontage road, as well as some of the neighbouring roads. You could be forgiven for thinking this photo is the highway or the frontage road - it's actually 5th ave in Valemount, taken in front of Monashee Motors looking towards downtown.

A snowfall warning continues for both Valemount, McBride and the Robson Valley, after the Valley received close to 1 metre of snow between last night and tonight. It is supposed to continue to snow through the night. There’s a 60% chance of flurries in both McBride & Valemount tomorrow (Friday) morning. The power is still out for much of the Robson Valley – 2641 customers are affected. ETA of restored power is now past 11pm – though it’s our understanding some are on McBride’s backup bio-diesel generators. There are two separate outages – one was due to a tree falling on the line, the other is still under investigation.

It's hard to capture the chaos on the frontage road and in front of the Karas Mall in Valemount tonight. Trucks are parked 4 across, blocking the entire frontage road. These ones are spilling into the parking lot.
