Continuous moderate snow for nearly 48 hours and only 5cm and wet pavement to show for it here. Only a trace along the Fraser and Pitt river flats in Coquitlam/Poco/Pitt Meadows.

In the same timeframe, over 30cm fell near Mundy park and 45cm at the top of Westwood plateau.
I remember that. Lived near Green Timbers and we saw 25cm. 5cm near Surrey Central. That was really weird.

Hounds area doesn't seem to be doing well this time.

I got hit hard alright. Right in the side of my truck. Someone lost control and crossed the center line. It was snowing pretty good when I left Shawnigan. 34cm on the ground.

Ended up doing better on the 24th and picked up about 15-20cm here. But what happened on the 22nd and 23rd was really odd.

At 12:14 pm today, the temperature rose above the freezing mark. At 4:20 pm on the 9th, it dropped below freezing.

115 hours, 54 minutes below freezing.
It's called clown range for a reason.

In Langley at Krause berry farms getting some chocolate waffles. Crossed through the VERY sad lands. Out here maybe 1” but snowing. I think I scored very well compared to these places. Snowing when I left so hopefully still is.
Burnaby Mountain @ 365 m..

Stats? Fresh out of those. But I win anyway. I got all the inches.

Hmmm… would that be a snow band on the radar setting up and getting ready to train over me?
