I think there's too many trees and condo buildings where I live, so I walked down the street to the local park and measured 15 cm :o
Ok sardineman I just found a new measuring area. :lol:

The tiniest graupel falling when I went for my walk , and now just as I got back lo and behold it's snowing again.

Snow drifts dont count. :bs: still snowing pretty good here at Sumas, also Chilliwack it's coming down pretty good too. Radar still looks decent as well.
The 7th annual snowfall contest is canceled due to no snow this winter.

I just went outside and confirmed it's snow grains or snizzle. It's still not liquid precip which is rather surprising.

GEFS and EPS continue to look decent. OP runs may waver back and forth.

As a grizzled veteran, you know these OP rug pulls are virtually meaningless unless they are supported by the ensembles, and even then things can turn around in a hurry. I think with the way the last few winters have turned out, we can be 'slightly' less apocalyptic when bad runs happen. Things have been relatively good, at least in the context of the way the rest of the 2010's were. We CAN have nice things people!

Nicely explained grizzly adams. :D but what's with the last 2 snow potentials basically busting for most.

You can't have snow drifts with zero wind. ;)

It is persistent out East. I have a deck snowpack from today now of 7.5cm. Only about 2cm at 5pm. Hoping it doesn’t stick too much on the roads. Any idea when it should change to rain? I really don’t feel like pushing snow.
