Low pressure developing due North of Tofino. Wasn't modeled. It is a bit too far to really do any damage for the LM but this should aid moisture developmemt for E Van Island and Puget Sound later.

Convective build up south of Tofino. This feature appears to be intensifying.

Currently getting the heaviest flurry of the morning so far.

Hoping it lasts for a bit.

Very, very light flurry when I drove my daughter to school this morning but it's tapered off for now.

Bet you’ll see one. They seem quite widespread.
It's called clown range for a reason.

I’ve forgotten how nice it is to have a freeze *before* a snow. Anything that’s falling right now is dry and accumulating immediately :D

Was going to drive up to Whistler Friday after work but now thinking that doesn't look like such a good idea :lol:

Looks like precip tapers off by Saturday morning correct? Thinking of going up after the precip dies off early aft..

Radar looks like it's filling in from the west now? And the sky looks awfully dim for 10 AM.

Oh look it's flurries in Edgemont.

Nito's clearing up was fake news.
