Original story: 

More than 3,000 residents in Aldergrove are without power Saturday, Feb. 1. 

The outage stretches from south of 56 Avenue, east of Fraser Highway, north of 16 Avenue, and west of Blueridge Drive. 

Power has been off since about 1:30 p.m. A crew has yet to be assigned as of 2 p.m.

BC Hydro has not posted a cause on its website, however neighbourhoods in eastern 91原创 have been experiencing snowfall since earlier today. 

Some services are affected, like the Aldergrove library, which announced it is closed for the rest of the day due to the power outage.

Environment Canada says a wintry mix of weather conditions is expected to affect Metro Vancouver over the next few days, prompting the weather agency to issue a snowfall warning early Saturday morning.

The weather agency says heavy flurries mixed with cold temperatures are expected this weekend as arctic air moves into the region and an upper low brings the moisture.

It says snowfall with total amounts of 10 to 20 centimetres is expected across Metro Vancouver.
