It’s been cloudy and blustery all day with occasional showers here. Temperature shot up from 7˚C to 12˚C in about 30 minutes this morning as the front arrived and has been sitting at 11 for most of the day.
It's called clown range for a reason.

That's it I'm going to hit the mountains and some deep snow ~5000ft. Hopefully my phone doesn't freeze this time so I can send back some pictures :thumbup: :thumbup:

There were some nice heavy showers today with hail mixed in. Better than just plain rain I guess? :roll:

Doesn't look like this is going to pan out...

What was advertised as an arctic blast is now just a weak offshore flow and seasonally mild temps. A typical case of a model picking up a pattern but getting the important details completely wrong.

The season changed with the calendar this month...

Mean temperature:

YXX
Feb 2.4C
Mar (so far) 6.9C
Diff: 4.5C

YVR
Feb 3.4
Mar (so far) 6.9
Diff: 3.5C

Quite a contrast so far.
