Lets see. The ECMWF has crazy pressure gradients with the frontal passage. Those winds in excess of 110km/hr could very well verify. This would be Friday afternoon

GEM and GFS are more run of the mill...

I had around 6 mm yesterday. 40 mm today so far. So about 46 mm since yesterday afternoon. Looks like the heavy rain continues tonight so we'll see how much additional rainfall I receive. :D :thumbup:

That would be a bonus. I'm so tired. :lol:

The power did actually go out at the mall for about 45 mins during the December 20 2018 storm but it came back on before my shift started. :x

Yeah wind gusts to 168 km/h in a mountainous town won't cause any damage... :lol: But speeds like that won't likely verify so thats good news.

Not to sound negative but it was an utter shite day here on the North Shore. Dark, depressing, and soaking rains of varying intensity. Can't wait to move to a sunnier and colder climate. :lol:
It always snows in December in the Kootenays :clap:
