'Twas hail slush, not snow slush, so you are most correct. Not snow.

Slushy rain and 2.5ËšC.

Would have been nice to get this stuff earlier when it was a little cooler but The Jinx ruled that out.
It's called clown range for a reason.

There was snow at Westwood Plateau and upper areas of the North Shore. Some accumulating hail in Fleetwood earlier and there's slushy rain in Newton.

YVR briefly reported ice pellets between the 10 and 11 o'clock hours, so it will go down as snow on the official books.

Currently hailing. I haven't seen a hailstorm like this before. It's a perfect spring day, snow, warm sunshine and now hail. :D

Snowing in the Seattle metro area again for what I think is the 35th time since March 1st.

This is what happens when you chase snow.

Please do not move to the Similkameen region.
