Yeah, I could see it if the temperature were fluctuating, but it wasn't.

Campbell River shows an hourly of -11.5C at 22:00 yesterday evening, so that's plausible.

Oh, grabbed this from Reddit:

There is no need for these type ditches anymore. Drainage has been improved a lot with pumping stations.

This is 168th in Surrey.

Yes we need to idiot proof our roads but to be fair...Taxi drivers are some of the most aggressive drivers out there in the region.

Personally, I like Radarscope. It's a paid app though

Otherwise, this one is pretty good too: https://atmos.uw.edu/current-weather/northwest-radar/

Yup, picking up the pace here too . What are the chances of one of those elusive stationary bands?

It doesn’t look likely, but neither was this morning snow, so who knows?

The NAM was showing some heavier stuff south of the Fraser due to some convergence over Boundary Bay, so we shall see.
