Looks like that’s all she wrote except perhaps for a few lingering flurries. 10.5" or just under 27 cm total. I will round it up to 27.
It's called clown range for a reason.

As controllers, we don’t know or care about passport status. We have one job and that’s to get that airplane to and from safely.
For sure! Makes perfect sense

Now too much snow? So light as -12 and snow is puffy that if you fart on it half would melt. Took a picture of the snow from yesterday to now in a wind protected area.

People on twitter: "WHY WERE THERE NO SALT TRUCKS???"

Salt does nothing during active snowstorms. It leads to melt and refreezing in a matter of minutes. Compact snow with some sand has better traction.

Fraser valley just on the back edge should be clearing the central valley snow should be winding down within 2 hours or so.

Plus when it’s this cold salt starts losing its effectiveness as a thawing agent.
