An announcement on Facebook read: “To make sure we can have the wildest snowball fight possible (and have everyone make it to campus safely) we will be moving the snowball fight to Thursday at 12.30!
“Enjoy your day off, get some extra target practice, and we’ll see you all tomorrow!”
BC Transit, which runs public transport in the state, also warned people not to travel unless it was absolutely necessary.
The snowball fight has become an annual event at UBC, with a reported 3,000 people getting involved last year.
