Maybe if they build a bridge you could move to the island and commute. :thumbup:

Dumping snow here again. Massive flakes.

Actually, I'd like to remove a huge portion of the Rockies so we have a corridor for the cold to come barrelling in, after that I'd build higher mountains on Vancouver island and drain the Georgia Straight to prevent any kind of warming.

Seems like the outflow is still drying out the precip. See the old flake every now and again but it’s mostly drizzle now.

I would bet money we see another cold snap. How cold and how much snow, who knows.

Well, hopefully we see a wet and cool Summer. La Nina and what looks like a negative PDO. Unless I'm completely wrong about the latter.

Sure! I forgot one thing, we need to get HughCorne up the air to reverse the jetstream, have it flow west. This is vital. In fact every member here will have a role. I will publish that later.

Yeah, I would be okay with that. Morning cloud, afternoon sun. Ideal.

I'm hoping for another 40 to 60cms up top here in the next 2 weeks. Hopefully another 15 to 30 at cabin elevation

Things are definitely looking interesting in the 10-15 day range.

Right now half of the country of Mexico is colder than here and colder than it was last week. What a joke.

Pour it on..get it out. I'm all ears! :superanger:

Probably because it is still mixing back and forth out here. Was raining, now mixed. Snowing 45 minutes ago. Can't make up mind but it's leaning towards rain.

It's the Smilkameen. They don't get big snow unless you are above 5,000ft. Smilkameen area is only good for dirt bike riding, fishing, and river tubing.
