The hills are another huge factor. Even experienced winter drivers from the prairies or ontario have problems driving in the snow here.wetcoast91 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 11, 2021 5:45 pm Agree.
I was so much better in Belleville. Sidewalks were shoveled. People either stayed home or maintained better gap control when driving. You would get a few large snowfalls then be able to walk around and enjoy the scenic landscape. Here...you walk out into a puddle of slush and have either cold rain or drip slush from the trees fall on your moldy smelling umbrella.

A lot of the mesoscale models are showing it will be a lot drier here. I guess that’s it. Screw the outflow

Re: February 2021 Forecasts and Discussions
Dewpoints are still dropping across the region... now below -15c at YVR and close to -20c in Pitt Meadows. Too bad we won't have a clear and calmish night otherwise mins would have been a lot more impressive.

Temp -6ËšC, DP -17ËšC.
NWS forecast low tonight: -7˚C. They have had a warm bias during this whole event. If we get the same temperature curve tonight as last night, somewhere around -9˚C seems a good bet. Maybe I’ll hit the -10 mark this winter after all?
