Feb 2019 started off pretty slowly here in the lower mainland...the initial arctic blast barely dropped any snow with lots of blowing dust instead. :lol:

The following week we got a fair amount of snow, but it wasn't really close to what the island or you guys in the Puget sound got. I believe Vancouver ended up with only half the snowfall that Seattle and Victoria got that month.

I got a trace of sleet (ice pellets) then. So… a trace again?
It's called clown range for a reason.

Port Kells managed about 40 cm in that south based storm on the sunday/Monday but I know the northern and western sections got shafted hard.

We get a lot more snow on average than you though. Like annual average is 26-30” around Shawnigan Lake

Yea you guys do. I am trying to move out of the lowlands and hopefully into the North Bend area to score more snow in the next 5-10 years

At least it’s December and not Feb.

Odds are slightly more in our favour this time of year.

:dunno:

Trying to find a positive.

Prepare for Nito’s 925mb temps are too warm post.... coming soon.

You could be neighbors with Tim. Rumour has it that it rains a lot in North bend.

Just a heads up there are people who get pretty bothered by swearing here.

Not that your frustration isn't 1000% warranted. This is getting pretty old already. The weather gods hate us and I think they use the models to toy with our emotions.

I want to refocus on other hobbies but there is literally nothing else to do other than playing music by myself for the 300th time in a row.
