I hope, but I'll believe it when I see it. I'd be happy with 15 cm.

Both models also showed most of the Lower Mainland holding out as snow until some time between midnight and 10:00 AM.

At this stage, it is quite clear that the snowier Goofus scenario is not going to materialize.
Models have nailed this event. There have been no surprises.

I wouldn't say the GFS was wrong, it just has coarser resolution so it smooths out high amounts to more areas. You just have to know how to read models to know to rely on high resolution models within 24 hours

What time is the snow supposed to stop?
I might. I’m certainly not getting 20 or 30 cm, though. I think we’re good until at least midnight, based on what the models were saying. I am expecting it to be cold rain by dawn.
It's called clown range for a reason.

And how to check the “snow” maps against temperatures and dew points to weed out all the phantom snow.
