If that happens, it looks like some of those outlier models saying Bellingham gets 30+cm might verify?

Would totally bust my forecast, but it would be fun!
It's called clown range for a reason.

Yea. That’s surprising. I gotta think the outflow is cutting into precip big time. I’d only expect that much difference if temps were marginal.

We have around 10-15cm here in Gordon head in Victoria...it’s hard to measure due to the wind blowing it around.

Shocking, I think Vancouver will do better today than the Island.

Hey Levette..where was this cabin at again?
I used to go to a cabin up in the Pemberton area I can't remember the name of the lake :think: :think:
Only way in to get there in the winter was snowmobiling because the road was just an FSR and not serviced
January 2025 incoming..looks like more Pineapples..Happy New Year! :think:

I took a measurement to make sure my guesstimating was good. 20cm on the picnic table.
