The latest SREF Plume shows there's a 65% chance of snow, and eventually a 36% chance of rain, but snow still wins out.

Outflow has increased and cooled in the eastern Fraser valley. I would expect snowfall warnings from EC with the afternoon package. Maybe the mid day update but I doubt it.

I was about to post similar thoughts too.
Normally very calm in outflow situations here, the outflow is increasing noticeably too.

And FWIW, I tend to find that the Global futurecast product not the greatest reliability. The resolution is not great at all...

As with most of our snowfalls (especially in recent years) this will be another Nowcast IMO.

I think this one will definitely be better for areas North of the Fraser and higher elevations. Too many factors to overcome for coastal and sea level regions. Who knows though.

The outflow has increased here which is very rare for my area.

This will definitely help the #teamsnow chances for tomorrow. I agree with the 2-3” range being suggested, and the SREF plumes are decreasing the rain probability too.
