Seems to happen more often for our March/April snowfalls rather than during the winter.

I'm going with 5cm for areas south of the Fraser. North of the Fraser and higher elevations could see up to 10cm tonight. Big win for late winter in a strong El Niño. Tomorrow looks like a wash out with widespread heavy rain. But perhaps another snowfall in the beginning of March. :silent: :wave:

Back to just flurries here. Surfaces damp-ish.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Looks like a low stalls offshore. Not an AR so totals may be overdone. We'll see. :think: :wave:

<522 thickness typically needed for snow down to sea level during onshore flow and no preceeding cold air mass.

More solar energy off a cooler ocean along with less dry continental air fueling post frontal showers.
