Plenty cold but generally dry and something of a quick-hitter. Maybe a few flakes as it ends before it quickly transitions to plain old rain. That's what stands out to me.

Anyone know of places to go for a walk or hike on Sunday that are normally too muddy or sloppy this time of year? By Sunday the soil should be mostly frozen and it’s looking to be clear and dry. Might as well plan to take advantage of it.
It's called clown range for a reason.

I reluctantly believe that we are already done with this winter. Feb snow or slush, if any, will be kept pushing back to the point, say end of the month, that all become meaningless.

I'm looking forward to the daffodils blooming after this backdoor arctic fart :clap: :clap:
The saddest thing about the upcoming pattern is that it looks quite dry, not adding any snowpack to the local ski hills, nor the Similkameeeens hills either :thumbdown: :thumbdown: :cancel: :flakey: :flakey:
Looking forward to our first 3 day stretch of sun and 20c++ 8-)

Think I’m going to bundle up on Saturday night, drive up the Fraser Valley, and take advantage of the forecast clear conditions to try and catch a glimpse of Comet ZTF.
