Day 4+: 12z GEM > 12z GFS

That little clipper around day 3 digs a little nicer on the 12z euro. Looks colder.

Bust, or just a bad location for snow?

Mix of both. Temps were not even close to being marginal yesterday so getting only 5cm is just bad luck.

Could have gotten more in the evening but NE Metro ended up in the dry slot all night long, which was a big bust for EC's 10cm snowfall warning.

Yep.

Overnight low ended up being -10.8c.

Not bad considering the cloud cover.

Received about 16cm of snow yesterday and 2cm this morning, so 18cm total for the event.

All in all, a nice Christmas gift from mother nature.

Big bust for parts of the tri cities unfortunately.

Is that 5 cm overnight, or total on the ground? Got 5 cm overnight here. I think that’s a pretty representative amount.

5cm total.

We got a few scattered flurries overnight in Coquitlam. Only Amounted to 0.5cm. I haven't measured yet so I could be off by a bit but we definitely missed out big last night compared to western and eastern sections.

Another shot of cold air next Friday on euro. Highs back down well below freezing. Precip looks relatively light with both systems though. Cold with periods of light snow. Should be good ratios though

That it does John...

The pineapples will remain frozen for the forseeable future.

5cm total.

Bummer. That qualifies you to whine.

[Roberts Creeker]

Still snowing here, tiny flakes now but it's been amazing to have it snow for this long.

Fortunately I got 11.5cm total here in east Coquitlam so not as bad as southwest Coquitlam. I haven't seen everyone else's totals but I think that's still on the low side?

What’s your depth at up there?

On the plus sides, at least we've seen some snow, and it was as the arctic front came in, so it's not one of those depressing bare-ground cold snaps. Plus Friday is still and the details of the exact outcome are likely to differ. Actual storm track may prove more favourable.
