For Spring 2026, changes are expected to include... 1) ECCC's deployment to introduce free-form polygons to represent the true threat area of a weather hazard, which was originally scheduled for June 2026, is delayed. We will communicate the new date when it is available. Monitor https://dd.weather.gc.ca/doc/genots/ for notifications on the new launch date. Information about free-form polygons representing the true threat area of a weather hazard remains under media embargo until launch, 2) marine alerts will now be issued for smaller zone splits in certain areas of Atlantic and Pacific waters and 3) other minor improvements and corrections.

Ministry of Environment and Parksyellow warning - air quality - in effect
Elevated pollution levels are expected or occurring.
The Ministry of Environment and Parks in collaboration with the Interior Health Authority has issued an Air Quality Warning for Castlegar due to elevated fine particulate matter.
Exposure to fine particulate matter is particularly a concern for infants, older adults, individuals with chronic conditions (such as asthma, COPD, heart disease, and diabetes) or respiratory infections, and those who are pregnant.
Postpone or reduce strenuous outdoor activities until the warning has ended. Spend time indoors in a space with filtered air. Monitor your symptoms and seek prompt medical attention if needed.
Current conditions are expected to persist until weather conditions change and/or local emissions are reduced.
The next update will be on September 26, 2026 and posted to the province’s Air Quality Warnings webpage.
Visit the provincial air quality data webpage for real-time observations.
