Variable downsloping or southerly winds have warmed up temps below 600m here so it would be plain old rain here anyways.

As probably expected, it’s been on and off snow and mixed precip up on Bby Mtn these past few days. Had a good 5 to 10 cm the other day and another couple cm last night. Melted and now it’s snowing again. Always fun to see flakes in the daytime.

Snow!!! Major blizzard at +2.2 dp +1. It even turned the ground white but has almost stopped now. Roads are wet but it stuck to the trees and grass.

What a surprise after a day of hail, rain and clouds.

I just had a trace briefly accumulate! First time I have ever seen snow stick on the ground on the West Coast in March.

Bodes well for tomorrow morning, when the NAM 3km says there will be another snow chance.

OK, that's too funny- ask you shall receive. It's fine, driving snow now and starting to accumulate.

Snow seems to have stopped. Received maybe 4 cm of wet snow and snow grains(?) in about 3 hours or so.
Sure it will melt again within an hour or two.
