Does it snow at sea level tomorrow?

[Hawk]

Snow is coming back later and tomorrow however dancing pineapples will be all around us next Tuesday-Thursday.

Haha. If you think about it..it just doesnt want to RAIN HERE right now. A quick warm up, then back to flurries again already today
Nito..where is the mild rain this winter? Weird. Warm fronts are super wimpy this winter. Must be those cold SSTs

[Hawk]

Temps are already dropping on the island quickly. Port Hardy EC said H+2c, it barely cracked 0c today. Already snowing there

Wind warning issued for 70-90 km/hr gusts for Abbotsford, Chilliwack and Hope. My peak is just 32 km/h so far.

8:20 AM PST Friday 07 January 2022
Wind warning in effect for:

Fraser Valley - central including Chilliwack
Fraser Valley - east including Hope
Fraser Valley - west including Abbotsford

Strong winds beginning late this morning.

Wind speed: Southwest winds near 70 km/h gusting to 90.

Timespan: Late this morning to this afternoon.

Location: Fraser Valley including Abbotsford, Chilliwack, and Hope.

Remarks: An intense low pressure system will generate strong winds to the region beginning late this morning. Winds through the Fraser Valley will see speeds near 70 km/h gusting to 90. The strong winds will ease through the afternoon.

Freezing rain over central and eastern Fraser Valley has caused significant ice buildup on trees and structures. Strong winds could further worsen the situation and lead to potential damages or power outages due to tree branches breaking.

High winds may toss loose objects or cause tree branches to break.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to BCstorm@ec.gc.ca or tweet reports using #BCStorm.

Clouds have thickened up over the last couple hours and lightly snowing here in Sardis. Upper levels have definitely cooled off

Lets see what EC comes up with at the 4pm update for snow this time.
Anyone for 5cms? 5-10cms?

looks like some convergence sliding E/NE along the USA Mtns, heading into Abby and the Wack is producing those flurries
