Also, do you agree there may also be some heavy snow in some areas due to convective activity? I believe this area is in the firing line with moisture coming out of the SW. It has happened many times before. :clap:
Daylight + instability on Monday. Bubbly clouds!

Not really the best of model runs for me, though my current location does fare better than my old one on Bainbridge Island.

P.S.: And honestly, most of the Lower Mainland doesn’t look so snowy in that run, either. Even the areas shaded blue have to be taken with a grain of salt, as much of that’s likely slop-over from modeling the Coast Mountains. With model runs like that, getting all bummed out over getting no more than a few cm is a case of having unrealistic expectations.

It's called clown range for a reason.

Hope so, I need all the flakes I can find. Been snowing for a few hrs, but more intense just now, maybe I'll be able to start measuring soon.

I hope global news is wrong ,they're calling for rain and +4 this afternoon.

Since the weather on this side of town has gone over like a lead balloon, I made a bacon butty to cheer myself up.

The odd snowflake...and I spotted a bunch of ducks in my yard. That may be a sign of things to come...?
