Had a torrential rainstorm around 5am this morning with some strong winds. Brought the snow levels down quite a bit on the hills. :clap:

How come? All I see is a November in a La Nina in a very wet/cool fall so far. At face value that seems almost a sure bet for more active weather than not. Maybe a couple days of ridging here and there if we're lucky.

Valid point Kells however if you go back to every October on the forums El Pineapple 🍍 always predicts a massive ridge in November. :lol: he's been right afew times.

Yup. It shows around 80.5 mm of rain for Abbotsford. If that verified, it would be the highest daily rainfall since November 6th, 2006 when 83.2 mm fell. :thumbup:
