Moderate snow. -4.9c, dp -5.4c.

I'd say about 8-9cm here, maybe a bit more.

WOW western sections really scored on this one. At this rate I'll have storm total of 25-30 considering I'm already pushing 22.

Just about to head to work and it’s dumping snow out there. Haven’t measured but looks like 15+ cm just by eyeballing it. Still -5c here in Tsawwassen

This is very heavy snow. This event beats Jan 2020 by a mile for me, I think I got just over 15 cm overnight that time including about 10 in 3 hours. I can't wait to see whether 4-5AM beats 12-1AM.

20 cm might be a slam dunk then, given what has transpired since 4 AM.

Heavy snow here.

I might have low balled my estimate earlier, still could end up with the 15cm I was hoping for soon.

Yesterday when the HRRR was spitting out those insane totals I kept telling myself to not get my hopes up. Turns out it was more than correct. In fact, it low-balled the western sections slightly. I guess when it comes to certain last minute trends it really is the go-to model.

Hrrrr showed 0cm here. Looks like I’ve got about 12 so far. :lol: personally I like the RGEM, HRDPS and Euro best.

Seems to be decent region wide. :thumbup:

The 6Z gfs was just basically never ending winter. A quick warmup then back to cold and snow

Sounds like we *might* get the hawk Pattern Lock to help keep all this snow around :hawk:
