Definitely an outside chance of 30+ over here. I personally think its trending towards 20+ for you guys. And even Richmond will get in the teens IMO.

If Vancouver gets 15–20 cm as WP says, my neighbourhood gets 20. I would not complain about that.
It's called clown range for a reason.

This has happened many times in East Surrey where the accumulation exceeded the forecast. I'm really curious this time round considering how good the models look right now. Usually in this situation, we score well in my area as well as Guildford and Langley Clayton area.

Possible with your elevation! Hell it snowed 30 or 40cm at the airport before in one shot. Was that 96? I can't remember.
