I guess I have to add another 3ish mm to my event total which is now 85.3 mm of rain, as we got a burst of HEAVY rain for 5-10 minutes, ending with a single, very loud thunderclap at 11 last night.
lightening maps put the strike right near highway 99 on the shore of Boundary Bay. if it was loud enough for a jump scare chez moonshadow, feel sorry for anyone along that stretch of 99.

I noticed that on radar last night Moonperson it moved Northwest ward from the island traversing Vancouver. l wondered if there was thunder from that cell nice to know someone heard something.

Geesh Tmild this is not looking good at all even for the ski hills. Oh well carry on l'm getting in the seasonal spirit despite. l think the last two years we were spoiled in December it added to the festive season looks like nothing here this year.

Potential is there for 1-3cm of snow down to 100m on Saturday afternoon as a system pulls in some cooler air from the interior.

How would you define a professional wishcaster? I don't believe any professional meteorologist wishcasts. Personally, I think Tyler Hamilton does a very good job at forecasting the PNW region.

I love Tyler. I would define it as someone who is in denial, like Snow wizard, on the AF forum. If you know the models ain't showing something yet you are trying to convince yourself and everyone else, then you're a wishcaster.

[Weather101]

I don't frequent that forum anymore but I imagine Wiz will do his annual meltdown soon and take a hiatus.

Ah yes. The one will he says, " Nobody knows what their talking about, and he's been following the weather and climate for 20 plus years? Then he announces he's depressed and disappears.

Like clock work.

[Weather101]

No, Snow Wiz is an amateur wishcaster. He is just a weather enthusiast, not a professional meteorologist.

Tyler Hamilton is a professional wishcaster.

Snow Wiz thinks he's a professional
