Ice pellets really adding up here in a way the flakes never did. Up to 2 cm for the day so far.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Mostly ice pellets now here in Ladner. Accumulated enough to cover all the roads and bare surfaces with a cm or two

Fortunately as the moisture turns to rain! Hopefully it brings the warmth from aloft!

It does seem to be warming here. Had been stuck at -0.3ËšC for hours but now up to -0.1.

Just as well, will avoid heavy icing when it rains.

I like the transitions that include a rapid warm up. From -1C to +12C with a southerly wind...makes it more tolerable than sticking near 0C with rain.
