I was originally referring to the dry (backdoor) arctic outbreak early on in the month though.
oooh I forgot about that

Yeah, those events are typically Oregon specials. It was very similar to the early Dec 2013 arctic blast. Dry and chilly with snowstorms into Oregon. Eugene ended up dropping to -23c while YVR struggled to hit -10c.

There was some very good skating on some of the smaller local waterways (serpentine fen in Surrey) though since both events were pretty long in duration and temps remained just below freezing.

Hmm, I thought this run would be colder. Looks like 18z was a bit colder.

A little less snow in that first round than the 18z, but still very good.
