That’s my problem at 2 ft elevation.

Stronger shower just did a nice job of dusting the trees white and brought me up to 3 cm measured accumulation for the day. Still think I’m overall at no gain to a slight loss, though.
It's called clown range for a reason.

I wouldn’t give up hope. All snow here and look at my elevation.

It’s just dumping snow here. Not sticking on much but it’s slowly overwhelming the clear areas. If it was a month ago we would be getting massive accumulations. Can’t get dark fast enough

Hey Rubus, do you prefer the Fahrenheit scale or the Celsius scale? And why? I just wonder why the USA wants to be the only major country not adopting the metric system.

Kids sledding in slush and grass.

Anyone remember when Lougheed Mall used to pile up snow in mini Mountains in the early 90s? Used to have fun sledding down them.

It seems they truck snow away now... :lol:

As a American, the Celsius scale makes way more sense. However, I would never switch lmao

Moderate to heavy now been piling up on snowy areas for about the last hour but now turning bare areas white. If we can hold the moderate to heavy precip once we get to sundown should start piling up.
