A vigorous cold front is expected to cross the southern B.C. interior late this afternoon.
As it moves across the region, southerly winds are expected to shift to strong and gusty westerly winds.
“The risk for the strongest wind gusts will be early this evening across the 100 Mile, South Thompson, Nicola, Shuswap, and North and Central Okanagan regions,” reads the statement.
Environment Canada expects the winds will ease through this evening as the cold front moves out of the region.
