I wonder if the Smithers Golf course is open? I bet most of the white in Vanderhoof is just frost. Looks like 10-15 cm is supposed to fall in Smithers with 5 cm falling near Vanderhoof.

Looking at the ensembles I think that he is right, at least for Vancouver's North Shore mountains. 850mb temps are 0c and above which is too warm for snow there. Plus it is quite dry.
