ARTICLE: Western Canada residents should expect another winter with above- to well above-normal temperatures, as a prevailing westerly flow delivers milder Pacific air across the region.
Compared to last winter, there will be more snow across the coastal mountains of western British Columbia, which includes the Whistler Blackcomb ski resort, host of the 2009-2010 Winter Olympics.
Farther east in the Rockies of eastern British Columbia and western Alberta, snowfall will underachieve this winter. The majority of the snow in this region will fall during the first half of the winter before a drier pattern sets up during January and February.
SUMMARY: This article basically states how Canada will have a warm winter, one of the warmest on record it appears. There have been a series of warm winters in Canada previously, likely due to global warming. There will also be a lack of moisture in the atmosphere as it appears things are going to be dry and calm.
