Silly Nito, the curse only hits if EC issues the snowfall warning BEFORE the snow starts.

You are correct! So 40cm it is...

[Pomoman]

Yup seems to finally be picking up in intensity a bit. Flakes still smallish but are growing just like pornoman likes.

Yup... when the warnings come out this late that is usually a good sign.

[Macster]

I just want to get to “can’t see the grass anymore” amount of snow.

This is some funny looking snow. You can sweep it...I suspect this is dust.

So there is a serious amount of ice flowing down the Fraser River

I usually kind of step back from the models once the snow actually starts and just enjoy it. I will probably re focus latter today but tomorrow looks interesting but much more borderline for lower elevations and the island

[Storm]

HRRR has the snow going until 7 pm. with the SW section doing the best.

[NoahG]

That’s it. Really I expected more down there. Looks like it’s gonna snow for awhile longer.

Seemed like even the island was fighting dry air with the strong outflow. It’s snowing steady but when we get our big snows it’ll often be 3-5cm/hr rates.

Haven’t got an official measurement yet but appears to be about 15-20 cm in cook street village.

I hope you have received more than 0.000005 cm this morning Mr. Goose!

Is that ice in the harbour?

Let's think positive and shoot for 3 consecutive days of continuous snow. That will totally freak out Nito.

[Hughc0rne]

What happens first, a Canucks win or blizzard that drops a foot of snow from Vancouver to Hope? I’m not so sure

Well it’s not a blizzard but it certainly is a region wide snowfall. Sigh, the Canucks are cursed.

Woke up to a good 3cm on exposed surfaces, more than I was expecting out of this round. Score!
