I was just about to say the same. Really thought this event was over but happy to see it hasn't transitioned back to rain.

Currently 0.5c, dp 0.2c. Up to about 0.75cm on the ground.

Man, I really hate our local radar coverage. Absolute CRAP compared to other cities and especially the USA. How the south coast can go on so long with incompetent radar coverage is a complete joke.

Grumps, you have someone else in SS now! I'm a bit to the NE of you from what I gather, about 10m - 15m lower at 85m asl. 5cm here, and coming down quite heavily, huge flakes. Temp steady at 0.5.

Moderate snow in Maple Ridge, about 2 cm accumulation so far. To be honest, I fully expected this forecast to be a bust so this feels a bit like a Christmas miracle, LOL. This is the first time my 8 month old kitten has seen the snow. He's been sitting at the window for over an hour watching the flakes fall.
