Here's the latest NAM 3km. HRRR does not look far enough in the future to catch the period when the flurries are modelled, and HRDPS shows no moisture tomorrow.

Flakes or drizzle will fall...but it will be very short-lived and not accumulate.

Not here, we're expecting drizzle. :( :( ...and they took away the snow at the end of the week. :( :( I guess I'm in the no :flakey: :flakey: zone.

Probably end up with some weird SWS for drizzle Ms. Drizzlecreeks.
The 7th annual snowfall contest is canceled due to no snow this winter.

If we can't get a cold January, can we at least get a snowy March? That 1951 event was absolutely insane. Would love to see a repeat. :silent: :wave:

Abbotsford airport recorded 102.6cm of snow in 5 days with 63.5cm falling within 48hrs. Daily high on March 5th reached -6.1 with a low of -10C. That is top tier cold and snow. Sorry 2002, 1951 was a much more extreme anomaly. It's hard to imagine that just a few years later, in January 1954, another top tier snowy arctic blast hit the region with Abbotsford receiving 118.7cm of snow in 7 days! The highest daily snowfall on record in Abbotsford (49.8cm) was recorded during that event. The 50's and 60's were sure a treat and I wasn't alive to experience it. :x :x :bang: :bang:
Central Abbotsford

2022/23 season snowfall: 76.8cm

That March 2002 was interesting it was the coldest Arctic blast for March in my lifetime. :thumbup: l was living in Maple Ridge at the time.

After tonight we'll be trailing Houston and New Orleans in measurable snow this winter :thumbdown:

But we're not trailing Seattle or Portland and that's all that counts lol
Praying for another 1950

Oh it was for sure a solid event. It just doesn't compare to the 1951 anomaly. :thumbup:

That's insane to think and it doesn't make sense the Seattle/Portland comment does.
