Yeah this is one of the most ideal setups for heavy snow here with the track of the low to the south and a reload of cold from the north. :thumbup: :flakey:

Isn’t SFU closed? Why not put some smaller busses on the route today… maybe even slap some chains on them.

My son is a student at SFU and he's on the snow clearing team. He's been busy there since 7.

SFU is closed but they still have to keep the buildings open for students/staff that needs/wants to work there.

Precip looks to taper off soon. Not going to hit 30cm.
Mainly sunny in Tofino with a temp of 0C :thumbup: Goes to show how chilly the airmass still is.
