Heavy, wet snow is expected in Banff and near Lake Louise, starting Friday evening and continuing through Saturday night. Between 10 to 15 centimetres of snow could accumulate within 24 hours.
“Travel will likely be challenging. Roads and walkways will likely be difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow,” the report warned.
