The Coquihalla has re-opened after being closed earlier today for avalanche control.

The area has been hit by a number of avalanaches, resulting in lengthy closures.

Highway 1 will be closed east of Revelstoke, starting at 3 p.m. today.

The late winter blast appears to be drawing to a close, with snowflakes already turning into rain drops on the south coast.

Temperatures are expected to rise for the rest of the week.
