Arctic cold front making it's way into northeast B.C...

I think it is safe to say it's going to be a white Christmas and the next two weeks will make hibernation seems like a good idea!

Environment Canada is warning of an extreme arctic cold front which is moving into the Northern Rockies and into the Peace Country.

Daytime high temperatures are expected to be between -24 and -28 from Monday Dec 8 to Wednesday Dec 10 and will drop further into Thursday, Friday and the weekend where the prediction is -32 to -34 for daytime highs.

Overnight lows will near -38 to -40 in the later part of the week. Average daytime high temperatures in the Northern Rockies at this time of year range from -12.8°C (9°F) to -16.3°C (2.7°F). Cloudy skies and flurries are expected over the next 10 to 12 days.

A reminder that exposed skin will freeze within a couple of minutes in these temperatures.
