It's 2024, we need to be more accepting of how El Nino expresses itself.

(this is meant VERY tongue-in-cheek but I will remove it if anyone takes exception)

A dusting of :flakey: for Monday morning? (It’s not phantom snow, or at least not obvious phantom snow.)

This would legitimately reset the snowpack to close to normal. Vale resorts needs to be creaming their pants right now.

Those are low elevation mountain numbers imo. No way Abby I’d getting anything close to 50 cm in this set up. However places like Westwood plateau and Burnaby mountain might get deep.

More like December l remember.
Spring break save perhaps. :thumbup:
The 7th annual snowfall contest is canceled due to no snow this winter.

Agreed. It’s also based on a 10:1 ratio and its low resolution. While it’s technically possible, the timing of the moisture would need to be in the evening and overnight hours. No way we see any significant accumulating snow during the day in a spring NW flow setup.
