There's a reason I always bring up the November 2006 snowstorm. It was honestly the most intense snowfall I've ever seen. Loved it. :D :flakey:

It's called clown range for a reason.

Impossible to measure how deep the snow is here in E. Abbotsford because the outflow winds are very strong here still. Temp was -3.6 when I got up, now it's -3.8C at 9am.

I estimate about 13-14cm if I had to guess, but I have 30+cm drifts everywhere already, and some areas with a bit less...

Opposition from residents below who are worried about people looking down at them is the reason why it hasn't happened yet.
