There’s quite a bit of snow lying on the Connector this morning. 

DriveBC webcams show a build-up of the white stuff at Eikhart and, to a lesser extent, Brinda Mine. 

The agency encouraged drivers to stay safe and remember to prepare for winter roads.

Stretches of the Coquihalla are also seeing some snow. 

That’s on top of a vehicle incident at Larson Hill earlier this morning that is causing delays of up to an hour. 

Environment Canada, meanwhile, has warned of snowfall totalling about 20 centimetres along Hwy 3, Hope to Princeton.

"Accumulations of 15 cm has fallen over parts of the highway and is expected to continue this morning before tapering off this afternoon," the agency explained.

"A further 5 cm is expected."
