:oops: sorry guess l over posted.
You did not overpost. All weather info today :clap:

My uncle used to drive truck. He hated the Coquihalla and would just take the canyon whenever he could.

The 6z was possibly heading somewhere good by about day 20. Not sure why people try to extrapolate off of the day 16 GFS. But some people are getting desperate to see a flake.

Yeah, afew of our drivers do a switch in Kamloops with drivers coming down from Enderby, so if they know ahead of time about highway closures they'll take the Canyon. We have drivers that run to Midway B.C. as well as up north to Hixon B.C. and up the Canyon to Cache Creek so I get all the weather conditions as well as temperatures when I'm at work which is fun sometimes. When the models were showing snow the last 2 weeks or so I kept warning them the shoe is about to fall. I'm sure when I head back to work on Sunday afternoon I'll hear all about it. It's nice we have a dedicated monitor cycling through all the highway cams in B.C. and Alberta. We also do runs from B.C. to Red Deer/Calgary, a couple state side to Washington as well.

January is going to be lame. That is the safest assumption at this point.

LOL. On to #endOfJanuary #allOfFebruary.

Seriously, though, I think we will see more lowland snow at some point this winter.
It's called clown range for a reason.
