How much snow @ your locale Smartie? which part of Nanaimo are you located?

I'm in the north end. Probably about 55cm on my deck now. Snowed another 5 or so overnight.

Blew right past -10 forecast from EC. I said it would yesterday at dinnertime but it looked touch and go a bit there with cloud cover lasting until late. Looks like it cooled down in a hurry after I went to bed.

Colder than 1990 or 1996! I think that pushes this one into Typer’s Cat 4 range.

I think we hit about -14 or so back in 1990.

I'm seeing about -16 at my place right now, on East Abbotsford. Coldest I've ever seen here was back in 85, and we're within spitting distance now. (-18 according to Rogers cable systems back in the day).

We're heading up to Sun peaks later this morning. It's a balmy -34 there as we speak lol

[PortKells]

Wow. Amazing stuff. -15 at yvr!! My ice rink better be ready to go.

Currently -20 on the dot!! Min was -20.1 which was pretty recent. I don’t know if I can recall -20 in Chilliwack, I have lived here my whole life. However we did just move up the hillside a year and a half ago and that certainly makes a difference

What's the next extreme we will see?

[Geekomak]

Unofficial -15c this morning! WOW

[Flakey]

I can't remember the year but kept checking out deck thermometer at my house as a kid and the coldest it ever got was -18 in North Surrey. Kept hoping it would hit -20.

[Celsius]

Currently -36.1° with clear skies!

[Antares]

What's the next extreme we will see?

or was that a 2021 thing?

10cm layer of ice when it finally warms up rains over the cold surface.

Neighbours pipes frozen solid. Keep a tap running!

Yes, kinda scary with all these extremes, one day we will get a crazy ice storm that’ll do tons of damage!
