Post by stuffradio »

The year is flying by! 2 more months until Christmas and one more month until colder weather and snow is more realistic.

I'm liking the "earlier" trends buttees

I remember we had snow in November in 2010, at least I did. I don't remember if we had any November snow since then.

We had some snow in November 2011 as well.

2010 was the last significant cold/snow event in November though.

Nov 3 2017 was good in Cumberland where I happened to be at a music festival. Snowed all day and most of the night, got about 15 cm. I think the lower mainland struggled to get a trace as it usually does.

2010 snowfall was significant for November. I recall picking up 2-5cm before the arctic blast and about 10-15cm in the overrunning event after.

Forgot about that one. Yeah it was cold rain most of the day across the lower mainland while the central and east Island scored big.

We did get a couple cm with a couple precip bands on the backside of the low later that night, which promptly melted by the next afternoon.
