Euro and GFS agree with the RGEM and HRDPS that we see more snow before we warm up. This time it looks region wide. :D :clap:

That 12z euro is also factoring in predicted amounts that have already fallen from 4am until 3pm.

Things are picking up nicely! Just went for a sled, was pretty decent, definitely been better but nice to at least be able to do it this year.

After a brief warm up, we appear to cool down again nicely after next weekend. Even an outside shot at another modified arctic blast. Who knows, maybe it even moves up in timing and appears as soon as next weekend. Hopefully we are in a pattern lock.

How do you get a squall with a clear sky? Weird. Wondering if it is a dust devil. Wouldn't mind being there!

Snow hasn't totally stopped here but the lightest it's been all day. Thankfully sun is starting to lower.

I once had a girlfriend who loved getting cheap pizza in Burquitlam I think at the original Pizza Factory. You could get so many pizzas for a good deal. I had to let her go though, she was getting too fat. This was in the late 90's if I recall correct.
