Looks like my storm total was 27 cm. I took a couple dozen measurements ranging from 24 cm to 30 cm, but the median and average were about 27 cm. The front yard had 3-4 more cm than the back.

You guys who don't have very much wind are lucky. That picture from Sardis that Hound posted looks like a nightmare to measure. You can hardly even ballpark that.

Otherwise that is a massive last second rug pull probably similar to 2011. So many model runs giving it to Seattle and it trends north at the last minute.
Na hope they get nothing just because of the way they act on that forum :lol:

Then cost over runs always happen and then pennies get pinched to try and keep costs down. Much like our cable bridges not having heated or automated snow removal, the technology is available but is not installed due to cost.
Makes sense. Always about money unfortunately.

Still no excuse for not then fixing a known problem. Once had a 7 hr Skytrain trip home taking the Millennial line from Clark to Scott Rd station. Ended up walking from Columbia to Scott Rd as trains not crossing the river. Found out they plow all the snow onto the sidewalk on the Patullo so was a challenge as huge chunks of ice as it was the end of a cold snap. :P

It’s weather-related news and it’s a weather forum, so…

Plus I am 100% sure they would be posting about Seattle’s snow totals if Seattle got the goods and Vancouver got skunked.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Joining Leighbugs with crazy bird stories. Just a few minutes ago heard a thud at the door/ window and a hawk was sitting on our rail.

Completely agree, the skytrain issue has been a known problem for awhile no excuse to not fix it.
