·         The north and eastern portion of the South Coast Inland forecast region (essentially all of this region except the Cascade ranges)

·         The northern two-thirds of the South Columbia (more or less north of highway 6 between Lumby and New Denver and north of highway 31A between New Denver and Kaslo.
