If you were looking up at the Okanagan sky this morning, you may have been treated to a bit of snow.

The Canadian Forces Snowbirds left Comox this morning on their way to Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, with a stop scheduled at the Penticton Airport to refuel.

Those plans changed, and the famous fliers ended up making their stop at Kelowna International Airport.

The set departure time to get back in the sky is unknown.
