March 2021 Forecasts and Discussions

[SouthSardiswx]

I predict rain with periods of mixed confetti and slime at 300m

At 500m heavy wet slime
At 700m several accumulated inches of wonderful snow.

Edit: Essentially the same old disappointing story as it has most of this season.

Edit edit: I might be cranky today.

Been looking at the models and really wouldn’t be surprised if many of us end up seeing some snowflakes from Sunday evening into Monday morning. Does not look like there will be significant accumulations, but both the ECMWF and the GFS have been calling for it the past three or four runs. That is usually a pretty reliable sign.

Sorry Rubix but.

We seem to be in a #patternlock with R/T/R/T/R/T, with warm spring ridges and fairly cold troffs, which seem to show up every 7 days or so on weekends. This troff looks to be the coldest one yet .
If this system is a duplicate of the previous one then
PornoMan should score a late season snowfall

From Cranky to a snow white winter wonderland..bringing happiness and much joy in a winter that just never was for PornoMan

Any ideas as to when this pattern might shift to warner dryer weather?

Ask Nito. Hes nailing it all season. Right now it's hot and cold. And nitos silence means no sunny warm in the mid to long range

It hasn’t warmed up much so the ocean is still cold which is preventing it from warming up much. It’s a self-reinforcing cycle that we sometimes get trapped in during springtime.

July.

Actually it has been pretty dry for March. Very dry over here. But chilly.

We are paying the price for Nito’s warm demands all winter

Could see a freeze Monday morning as skies look to rapidly clear out in the front's wake on sunday evening.

Wouldn't wind prevent a freeze?

[VanCitySouth]

Looks like a windy one for the western sections tomorrow evening

Good call Van man wind warnings and special weather statements have been posted from the valley to the island. Few day's early for going out like a lion but close enough. Even the risk of thunderstorms for the GVRD.
