Seattle looks to miss out also. Portland looks to be the big winner.

This is natures balance.

Southern Wa/North OR is the sweet spot on this run.

Also this region was ground zero for snow last Jan. Now its Southern Washingtons and Oregons turn.

I think a lot of people feel the same way as you.

I think BainbridgeKid's post summarizes well what is happening.
NAM/UKMET/GEM/RGEM/ICON think the low will go north for nice snowfalls in Vic and areas south (bellingham south in the us)
GFS and EURO are more similar in that they are more south.
I don't know what to believe.

Still a few days for things to change?

History tells us that sometimes these systems trend North as we get closer.

I :dunno: though... based on how this winter has evolved it is very possible they stay South as well.

And yet all YVR could muster in one day was a pitiful 15cm.

Either way Vancouver gets skunked...as usual. :lol:

At least we have our blowing dust to look forward to by Wednesday and Thursday. A nice throwback to Feb 2019!

Hopefully it trends north a bit so that everybody from Vancouver to Vancouver scores.
