March is the one month where it is easier for Tofino to score than Vancouver.

Because it is March and I live in Vancouver, not Tofino.
Remember when models were showing 5+ inches of snow for coastal areas of Washington by noon today? The 30cm by tomorrow seems unlikely.

Tofino is getting hammered right now though.

Chunky rain in Langley this morning at 4c. Victory? :think:
MAYDAY MAYDAY! We need some warm sunny weather this month. Some showers mixed in would be good too :thumbup:

Score! :thumbup:

Best chance of wet snow is now Sat night into Sunday as the trough ejects eastward. Moisture looks like an issue as most energy along the trough axis dives south into Oregon.

Best actual chance is next November or December.

Check your calendar and note the month.
