Welp..temp dropped to ~4.5c this afternoon. Not bad, but not enough for "hillsplats". Any window splats Catnip?
But SFU had some wet flakes for sure..we were that close. Chalk up another small victory
Negative.
Need to wait for the front to pass through. Some cold air behind that. Perhaps some instability will follow in it's wake.

Nice score. Looks like 2-4" for you tomorrow if this is correct. Yet another victory
So many victories this week

I wonder what they're seeing? The HRDPS doesn't see anything over the lower mainland.

Snow level will likely be at 500m but may get pulled down to 300m in heavier showers. Contractors get to use their plows along with unnecessary salt and de-icing fluid.
This is corruption.

Slush isn't a victory lol, at least not in my book. That's such a low bar for winter..

Freezing level was around 8200 ft (2500 m) as reported by an aircraft observation earlier this afternoon, so it has quite a ways to fall to get lowland slush.

It's called clown range for a reason.
