In other news, roads in Burnaby are a mess. Main roads are choked with snow. Helped push a car up the hill on Government road. :lol:

Coquitlam has done a good job keeping up. Lougheed/Dewdney an hour ago:

Eagerly awaiting to see how much has fallen since 7am -- seems like some of you guys think 30cm might be in reach?

Still holding at -4.0C. Snow and wind has tapered off. I took a few measurements, a bit challenging with all the drifts but looks like a solid 38cm so far. Time to bust out the snow shovel and see if I can rally the rug monsters to help out.

That back edge isn't fizzling at all! It just keeps on chugging away, Rubes and I might both make 30 after all!

Some kind of convergence I think.. The models were picking on it.

I think Storm is just down the hill from me so I’ll assume his measurements are probably similar to whatever we’d have up Burnaby mtn. Will venture out after work. Hope the trail end keeps chugging up here. 30cm+ and the plus is up to me!
Burnaby Mountain @ 365 m..

Stats? Fresh out of those. But I win anyway. I got all the inches.

Well thankfully we hit 9cm here after a quick burst of snow that came in around 1pm so I guess you could say things are getting pretty serious…

Should be a beautiful evening for a scamper around the neighborhood!!

And to think there was talk on the American forum last night that this might bust for us Canadians because the low was going too far south. 😂
